MADYCS'24 Workshop has just closed
|
The MADYCS workshop took place at AREA Science Park in Padriciano from April 17th to 19th, 2024. MADYCS (Multimessenger Approach to out-of-equilibrium DYnamics in Complex Systems) was jointly organized by Elettra – Sincrotrone Trieste, CNR-IOM with NFFA-Trieste (attività MUR a valenza internazionale) and the Dipartimento di Fisica dell’Università di Milano. The workshop followed a previous one, by the same organizers and in the same premises, on Time Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy (TPES) in Jan 2017.
Aim of the workshop was to update the discussion on the latest developments and results by the community working on time-resolved spectroscopies applied to quantum and complex materials, actually integrating photoelectron, spin polarization, optical, Raman and transient grating spectroscopies in a multimessenger approach, along with theory support. Prominent scientists active in these fields had the opportunity to meet and discuss about their results and the latest developments of state-of-the-art instrumentation. The study of non-equilibrium phenomena in condensed matter physics constitutes nowadays a large and important fraction of experiments in a variety of complementary disciplines. Thanks to the novel ultrafast laser sources, it is now possible to realize a complementary ensemble of time-resolved spectroscopies, as it is done successfully in the joint T-ReX (FERMI, Elettra – Sincrotrone Trieste) and SPRINT Laboratories (CNR-IOM) in Trieste. These efforts made it possible to provide a multimessenger approach for the study of complex materials, which inspired this workshop. The T-ReX and SPRINT facilities, embedded in the frame of the FERMI FEL, represent an unicum in Italy and one of the few worldwide facilities devoted to ultrafast time-resolved spectroscopic investigations. The two laboratories join frontier studies on the physics of novel materials with the development of spectroscopic setups with unique features, complementing those available at the FERMI FEL in Trieste. |
Thanks to about 30 scientific highlights presented during the two days of MADYCS, the attendees have been able to learn about the recent results from complementary time-resolved spectroscopies applied to complex materials including topological insulators, superconductors, charge-density waves, magnetic materials, kagome metals, transition metal dichalcogenides, perovskites and several others. The workshop attracted the participation of about 50 scientists from a number of institutions across Europe. The highlights presented during the meeting will certainly trigger new experiments, inspire new developments and open the door to new collaborations, paving the road for a number of future studies by the users community and recognized scientists. Logistics and social program were professionally conducted by the local organizing group. |
