PSSCMP 2023: "Fractionalization, criticality and unconventional quantum materials"
Monday, July 10 - Friday, July 14, 2023
The Princeton Summer School on “Fractionalization, Criticality, and Unconventional Quantum Materials” will provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of contemporary quantum materials and their emergent properties in phases of strong electronic correlations or at the brink of phase transitions. 2023 is PSSCMP's 19th year (its inaugural year was 2005), and the program aims to foster knowledge exchange to explore the forefront of both theoretical and experimental methods in this rapidly evolving domain. The program is open to both Princeton and non-Princeton graduate students and postdoctoral researchers in the sciences. Lectures will be of pedagogical aim and the program organization is conducted primarily by Princeton graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. Participants can apply to present their research during a Poster Session. The in-person event location: Bowen Hall Auditorium, Princeton campus.
