Title: Ab initio methods: neutrons and X-rays for quantum matter research: a tutorial workshop
When: 17-19 September, 2025
Where: LINXS, The Loop, Rydbergs torg 4, Lund
Organiser: Qmat theme
About the event
The workshop aims to have a number of tutorial-style presentations from theorists and experimentalists within the theme, so that each group gets a better understanding of what the others’ methodologies can and cannot do. It will include an overview of the techniques, their strengths and weaknesses, their relevance particularly to quantum materials, which will be illustrated with some case studies.
The goals are to establish a common understanding that enables a productive discussion between theorists and experimentalists, to enable programmes of research to be designed in conjunction (rather than the conversation starting only after experiments have been performed), and to set the scene for a ‘Grand Challenges’ workshop that is intended to follow a few weeks later.
