Europe/Rome Note: ICTP has suspended all educational activities from 24 February up to 15 May as precautionary measures due to COVID-19; more details at https://www.ictp.it/about-ictp/media-centre/news/2020/2/ictp_suspend_activities.aspx Nano/mesoscale mechanical and rheological response with dissipation has become, thanks to the very broad range of experimental/theoretical approaches, a novel local diagnostic and even spectroscopic tool, as well as a playground of sophisticated non-equilibrium statistical physics. The physics of nanoscale mechanical dissipation is relevant to sliding nanofriction, to technological themes such as lubrication or finger-touchscreen friction, to soft and granular matter, to nanofrictional emulation in optical lattices, to active matter, to quantum and classical processes in noncontact AFM, and beyond. Between condensed matter physics, nanomechanics, materials science and engineering, this interdisciplinary area is of considerable conceptual value as a modern subject in non-equilibrium physics, and of the potential relevance of neighbouring fields such as fatigue, wear, lubrication, rheology, and biomechanics. As is well established in ICTP Trieste since 1995, we will collect the world community active in these fields, including groups in emerging countries, mixing theoretical, simulation and experimental highlights, and identifying future directions of motion of research in this lively arena. Topics: From dissipation to superlubricity Atomistic friction of 2D layered materials Nanomanipulation and dynamics of nano-objects at surfaces Tribology of confined systems and lubricants under shear Frictional dynamics in soft and active matter Friction in powders and granular systems Fundamentals of friction theory Electronic, magnetic and quantum friction Surface and bulk processes and transitions detected by noncontact AFM dissipation Tribochemistry, triboelectricity, biotribological effects Trends in experimental and computational techniques Participants are encouraged to submit abstracts of proposed poster contributions. A number of short oral presentation slots will be available for some of them upon selection. Speakers: A. BENASSI, Chiesi Farmaceutici, Italy R.

This requires an understanding of the ensuing multicomponent field theories, their microscopic origins and macroscopic responses. This program will bring together experimentalists, experts working on macroscopic properties and experts working on the underlying microscopic physics that leads to these complex states. The goal will be to achieve an in depth understanding of important physical properties including magnetic response, transport and thermoelectric properties, nature of topological excitations, and fluctuation-induced phases. This will be achieved through an emphasis on the following material systems: twisted bilayer graphene; iron-based superconductors; unconventional superconductivity in Sr2RuO4; UTe2 and related ferromagnetic superconductors; Bi2Se3 based nematic superconductors; j=3/2 superconductors; and novel 2D superconductors Topics: Topological superconducting phases Broken time-reversal superconductors Superconductivity with competing orders Topological Majorana edge states Novel superconducting gap structures Superconductivity from correlated electrons Speakers: A.

Organizers plan to hold the school at a later moment, still to be determined, either later in 2020 or in 2021. * * * The African School series on Electronic Structure Methods and Applications (ASESMA) is planned on a biennial basis since 2010. Previous schools were held in Cape Town, South Africa (2010), Eldoret, Kenya (2012), Johannesburg, South Africa (2015), Accra, Ghana (2016), and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia (2018). The aim of the School is to introduce young African researchers and students to the theory of electronic structure and other atomistic simulation methods, with an emphasis on the computational methods for practical calculations. The School will cover introductory concepts such as: electronic structure theory, density functional theory and functionals, phonons, magnetism, enhanced sampling methods in molecular dynamics, ab-initio molecular dynamics, etc. It will also cover more advanced topics and applications of these methods to the structural, mechanical and optical properties of materials, and to the properties of biological systems. The School will include hands-on tutorial sessions based on public license codes (including, but not limited to, the "Quantum Espresso" package). During the second week students will be asked to split up in teams and work on specific projects under the guidance of the lecturers and mentors. - - - This School adheres to IUPAP policies on scientific freedom, affirming non-discrimination on the basis of such factors as ethnic origin, religion, citizenship, language, political stance, gender, or age.

Europe/Rome Adiabatic quantum computing and quantum annealing are promising technologies to be used in the near future quantum devices. The conference will deal with academic and basic research on these topics, with a broad focus, including quantum approximate optimization (QAOA) and other variational quantum approaches, and in close connection with the neighbouring fields of Quantum Simulations and Quantum Computation. It will bring together top-world experts in quantum technologies from different areas of condensed matter, photonics and atomic-and-molecular physics to discuss together their latest results and viewpoints. The scientific focus will be on conceptual, theoretical, and experimental trends. The meeting will collect, as is well established in Trieste, the world community active in these fields, for fruitful encounters and exchanges, and with an intense mixing of theoretical, simulation and experimental experiences, including emerging countries, in line with the mission of ICTP. Supplementing about 25 invited speakers, a number of shorter contributed will also be selected among applications.

Out-of-equilibrium many-body systems can give rise to much richer scenarios than in thermodynamic equilibrium, and their understanding is becoming increasingly relevant for a wide range of experimental platforms. The purpose of this conference is to bring together leading experts of many-body open quantum system to represent the state of the art in the field, the most recent theoretical ideas and techniques, and the increasing number of relevant experimental platforms. The conference aims to promote interactions and further research advances, and to provide an overview of the most recent progress to young researchers entering the field.
