Our member Susanne Reffert is part of the organising committee for the Focus Week on Quantum Mechanical Systems at Large Quantum Number, that will take place at Kavli IPMU in Kashiwanoha, Japan, 31 August - 4 September 2020.
The study of quantum mechanical systems in sectors of large quantum number leads to significant simplifications and allows the calculation of physical quantities of otherwise strongly-coupled systems in terms of an expansion in the large quantum number. Large-charge predictions have been verified to high accuracy in various independent calculations.
The topic has attracted the attention of several communities interested in conformal theories, bootstrap, superconformal theories, particle phenomenology and lattice simulations. This workshop aims to bring together people with diverse backgrounds interested in this topic.
