ABOUT THE CONFERENCE
Time crystals is a fascinating field of physics, where the spontaneous formation, control, and potential practical applications of crystalline structures in time are studied and developed. The aim of the conference is to gather experts from various fields, including optics and photonics, atomic and condensed matter physics, conducting research on temporal phenomena and time crystals, and to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and experiences.
The conference is organized by: Case Western Reserve University, ICTP Trieste, and Jagiellonian University in Kraków, and will be held at the Grand Hotel San Michele, Localita Bosco 8/9, 87022 Cetraro (CS), Italy, between 14-16 July 2025 (arrival day: 13 July, departure day: 17 July).
The registration and abstract submission will be open in 2025. The number of participants is limited to 100.
The program will also include a number of oral presentations, selected from the participants, and a poster session.
- quantum and classical time crystals,
- photonic time crystals,
- temporal phenomena in optics and photonics,
- atomic and condensed matter physics in time,
- driven systems,
- dissipative systems,
- Floquet topological phases,
