Report: iSAP Hamamatsu 2016

iSAP Hamamatsu 2016
This symposium included an introductory lecture, five invited lectures, and 16 poster presentations. More than a hundred researchers, engineers, and bureaucrats attended the symposium from universities, industries, and ministries. The lecturers showed remarkable activities in the sciences and technologies relating to quantum many-body problems.
The presentations covered the forefront of quantum many-body sciences, such as long-range and beyond-mean-field interactions among ultracold atoms, optically driven strongly correlated systems in the solid state, quantum simulations and computing with cold ions, and excitonic transport in disordered molecular materials and Rydberg aggregates.
Fruitful discussions were made actively among the attendants even beyond the reserved Q & A periods, making the symposium highly useful for the development of quantum sciences and technologies.
