Anonymous survey about gender equality
Jan. 1, 2020 - Feb. 28, 2020 , Everywhere!

Dear colleagues from the Quantum Thermo community, Please find below the link to a survey made by the Gender Equality working group of the Quantum Flagship to gather information and comments about gender equality. It is ANONYMOUS, it takes 5 minutes to answer. https://qt.eu/engage/community/gender-equality-survey/ The more data we collect, the most adequate changes we will be able to propose! We thank you in advance for participating, it is very important! Géraldine Haack

Special Issue 'Experimental Studies of Mesocopic Thermodynamics' - Entropy
Oct. 1, 2019 - May 31, 2020 , Entropy

We invite submissions on a broad range of topics, including experimental studies of fluctuation relations, micro-engines, heat transport and information thermodynamics. Both theoretical and experimental studies of advanced techniques including bath engineering, statistical analysis of noisy systems, and physical analogues of noisy biological systems are very welcome. Finally, we invite proposals on realistic and novel methods to study the thermodynamics of quantum systems.

Frontiers of Quantum Thermodynamics
Sept. 18, 2019 - Sept. 20, 2019 , Exeter

We are pleased to announce the upcoming workshop "Frontiers of Quantum Thermodynamics", which will take place on the 18th–20th September 2019 in Exeter & the English Riviera, UK. This interdisciplinary workshop will bring together ca. 30-40 experts in stochastic thermodynamics, open quantum systems, information thermodynamics, strongly correlated systems, and quantum optics, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

College on Energy Transport and Energy Conversion in the Quantum Regime
Aug. 12, 2019 - April 30, 2019 , Trieste, italy

The activity consists of a 2-weeks school followed by a workshop. A limited number of grants are available to support the attendance of selected participants, with priority given to participants from developing countries. There is no registration fee. During the workshop, alongside the invited talks, there are a few slots for contributed oral presentations and we will ask some selected participants to present a talk rather than a poster. Registration deadline: 1st May 2019

Entropy Special Issue: Energy, Entropy and Information in Nano- and Quantum-Electronics
June 20, 2019 - March 31, 2020 , Entropy

Due to their high degree of control, small electronic systems provide ideal candidates to investigate thermodynamics on the nanoscale. In particular, all ingredients required to investigate heat and energy transport, as well as the thermodynamics of information, are available. This Special Issue aims at providing a focus on modern developments in the highly exciting topics related to energy, entropy, and information in nano- and quantum-electronics.

International school "Complex quantum systems out of equilibrium in many-body physics and beyond"
May 27, 2019 - May 31, 2019 , Yerevan, Armenia

The school will consist of introductory lectures aimed at graduate students, postdocs, and junior researchers. Topics include – far from equilibrium physics, many-body coherent dynamics, Anderson and many-body localization, and quantum information processing from many-body physics prospective.
