Multimessenger Astronomy Beyond the Standard Model and Quantum Sensing (Q-EYES 2025)
Kobayashi Hall, KEK
Q-EYES 2025
The international conference Multimessenger Astronomy Beyond the Standard Model and Quantum Sensing (Q-EYES 2025) will be held December 9–11, 2025 in Tsukuba, Japan. The event is hosted by the International Center for Quantum-field Measurement Systems for Studies of the Universe and Particles (WPI-QUP), a World Premier International Center at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK), promoted by the Japanese government.
Rapid advancements in quantum sensing and new detector technologies offer unprecedented sensitivity to minute fields and forces. In parallel, recent breakthrough in multimessenger astronomy are opening new observational windows on the Universe. The conference aims to facilitate fusion of these and related fields, linking laboratory quantum-sensor technologies and techniques with astrophysical and high energy physics observations. Bringing together leading experts from diverse communities, the event seeks to identify common methodologies, stimulate new cross-disciplinary collaborations and facilitate the discovery potential of quantum measurement systems as new "eyes" on the Universe.
Participation is open to all scientists interested in particle physics, quantum sensing, astrophysics as well as related fields.
Registration is free of charge (optional social dinner carries a separate fee).
