Scientific ProgramAmong the topics that will be discussed are the spatial and temporal evolution of the superconducting/superfluid order parameter (which emerges due to, e.g., the proximity effect in hybrid systems and Feshbach-resonance-controlled pairing in degenerate atomic gases), dissipation (via phase slips) and relaxation in systems out of equilibrium. |
