FOR 5522 PhD School on Nonergodic Quantum Dynamics

The Faculty of Physics, Göttingen, and its Institute for Theoretical Physics will host an international Phd School on Nonergodic Quantum Dynamics, with about 65 participants from 12 countries. The school will address fundamental questions of the non-equilibrium statistical physics of quantum many-body systems: How do the microscopic equations of motion of quantum mechanics lead to thermalization in closed quantum systems? Are there exceptions, that is, realistic systems that defy thermalization, at least on long time scales? What is the status of experimental research with ultracold quantum gases? The school is organized by the DFG Research Unit FOR 5522.
