International Molecule-type workshop 2025

Overview

Purpose

 The workshop, "Topology and Dynamics of Magneto-Vortical Matter," presents an opportunity to explore the rich dynamics of vortices in various physical systems. In QCD physics, vortices or vorticities are keywords that appear in contexts such as heavy ion collisions and quantum fluids like superfluidity in neutron stars. In heavy ion collisions, vorticities have a close connection with spin polarization phenomena, offering valuable insights into the behavior of matter under extreme conditions. Magnetic fields further increase the complexity of these systems, enabling a deeper study of magnetic and vortical effects and their role in shaping the quantum properties of matter. From a theoretical perspective, vortices act as powerful probes for examining various quantum phases, including phase transitions and topological properties. The research focused on vortices as tools for identifying distinct quantum phases, which provides important insights into the fundamental nature of strong interactions and quantum matter. Additionally, the relationship between vortices and topology offers new directions for understanding exotic states of matter and their manifestations in both high-energy physics and condensed matter systems.
