This workshop is co-hosted by KEK Theory Center and RIKEN iTHEMS to inaugurate their new partnership in theoretical studies of high energy physics and related subjects with special emphasis on development and application of quantum technologies.
The workshop aims for developing new connection between particle physics and quantum information/technologies. In the situation where significant progress is expected in the field of quantum information and technologies, it is quite important to discuss how such progress can be used in physics researches. Also, new techniques or new theoretical formulations of quantum field theory/quantum gravity may give deeper understanding of our quantum world. In this workshop, we would like to have world-leading researchers both from particle physics and quantum technologies, and drive lively discussions on future prospects.
We are trying to limit the number of talks to be as minimal as possible, so that we have plenty of time for discussions. The workshop is in-person only.
