The National Academies' Condensed Matter and Materials Research Committee (CMMRC) hosts an annual workshop. In 2024, an ad hoc planning committee will organize to conduct a public workshop that presents a high-level authoritative view of quantum-coherent networks for physical scientists and policymakers seeking a general grasp of the subject and its potential.

Quantum networks are at the center of recent advances in quantum information, communication, and computation. These networks can be used to simulate complex materials and study the emergence of order in many-body systems. To explore new capabilities on the frontiers of engineered coherent matter tha...

Description
An ad hoc planning committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will organize and conduct a public workshop that presents a high-level authoritative view of quantum-coherent networks for physical scientists and policymakers seeking a general grasp of the subject and its potential. The planning committee will develop the agenda for the workshop, select and invite speakers and participants, and moderate the discussions. The workshop would (a) focus primarily on superconducting and atomic networks but will seek connections and universal principles of quantum-coherent networks and (b) review the rapidly emerging implementations of coherent networks and their relation to fundamental problems and applications in condensed matter physics, materials science, and quantum information. A designated rapporteur will prepare workshop proceedings.
