Theory of Unconventional Magnetism: exploring altermagnets and beyond
This workshop focuses on the theory of emerging unconventional magnetic material classes such as altermagnets, p-wave magnets, and other complex spontaneous magnetic ordered phases with emergent properties. These magnetic phases beyond the conventional s-wave order magnetic paradigm bring new points of views that connect with many fundamental areas of physics and motivated the search for a practical path towards teramagnetic technology.
The concept of altermagnetism and unconventional magnetism beyond the s-wave paradigm has interesting analogies and connections with diverse problems in condensed matter physics, such as unconventional superconductivity, correlated electronic liquid-crystalline phases, multipolar magnetic order, spintronics, and topological phenomena.
The goal of this one-week workshop is to bring together scientists interested in the general problem of altermagnetism who have complementary expertise and experience on these related condensed-matter physics problems. While the workshop will host a few daily talks covering the latest results of this fast-moving field, the focus will be on discussions and direct interactions between the participants, to foster a collaborative environment that will help advance the field and open new research directions.
