Mini-symposium organized jointly by: MagTop Warsaw, Institute of Physics UMCS & Lublin Branch of Polish Physical Society
About:
Topological materials, such as insulators and superconductors, are qualitatively distinct from their ordinary counterparts, as has been profoundly evidenced by their in-gap modes. Such quasiparticles, emerging at the boundaries or internal defects, are topologically protected and reveal fractional character, which makes them appealing candidates for stable qubits and/or quantum computation. This mini-symposium aims to bring renowned experts of this discipline from across Poland together to discuss recent state-of-the-art achievements concerning the realization of the localized (dim=1) or propagating (dim=2) edge modes in various topological structures. This event will focus on theoretical challenges with a purpose to establish collaboration on such topics between Polish research groups.

When: The mini-symposium will start on 12th December (Thursday) and will terminate on 13th December (Friday). Lecturers will give 20-minute informal presentations, addressing the scientific issues and specifying open problems related to them.
Where: The symposium will take place in the Institute of Physics at the Marie Curie-Skłodowska University, Lublin. There is no conference fee. All interested participants are welcome. For more detailed information contact: Tadeusz.Domanski@umcs.lublin.pl or Timo.Hyart@MagTop.ifpan.edu.pl.
Accomodation: We have booked the single-person rooms for external participants in the hotel Campanile Lublin and expenses of one – night stay (12/13 Dec) will be covered by the Marie Curie-Skłodowska University.
