Events

Year All

The Physical Review Workshop is a high-end academic event series initiated by the American Physical Society, dedicated to gathering top global experts in condensed matter, quantum materials and related frontier fields for in-depth academic exchanges and frontier research discussions. The series has successfully held two authoritative sessions in mainland China before. The first was hosted in 2019, focusing on new frontiers of superconductivity; the second took place in 2021, centering on quantum materials, magnetism and spintronics. Both sessions have built a solid academic reputation, promoted interdisciplinary collaboration, and effectively strengthened academic links between Chinese and international researchers. Continuing the high-standard tradition of the series, this upcoming workshop will be jointly held by the American Physical Society, the University of Hong Kong, and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Quantum Science Center in Hong Kong in early June this year. It will focus on Optical Quantum Materials, aiming to inherit the series’ academic positioning and further expand international academic cooperation in the Greater Bay Area.
HKIQST is proud to co-host the APS Global Physics Summit 2026 Hong Kong Meeting, offering researchers across the Asia-Pacific region the most accessible pathway to participate in this premier international physics gathering. Dual Access: Registration for the Hong Kong meeting includes full online access to the APS Global Physics Summit (15–20 March 2026), at a significantly reduced cost compared to direct APS registration. Participants can attend live-streamed talks, revisit recordings for 90 days, and explore e-posters without additional fees. Abstract Submission: Oral abstracts submitted by 5 January 2026 may be selected for inclusion in the official APS Virtual Session. On-Site Programme: The Hong Kong meeting (23–27 March 2026) will feature a dynamic in-person academic environment, with oral and poster presentations, networking opportunities, and engagement with a diverse community of physicists from across the region. 📍 Venue: Hong Kong Productivity Council, Kowloon Tong 🤝 Organised jointly with PSHK, and supported by APS, HKIQST, and Qebula Mind Ltd.

After a general introduction to the cavity control of quantum materials across condensed matter systems, chemical reactions, and superconducting quantum circuits, I will discuss recent advances in our understanding of collective quantum dynamics, critical behavior, and emergent functionalities in multimode cavity QED systems in the non-perturbative regime.
