This workshop will gather leading experts in nuclear, hadronic, particle, AMO, and chemical physics to explore emergent phenomena at and near universality. We will provide a platform for representatives of these fields to report new progress in efforts to bride gaps between these lines of research which developed largely independent of one another. This will foster communication and establish a common language to enhance the parallelism of effects that arise in different domains.
The excitement and growth of this effort to identify common underlying structures in different fields can be quantified by the increasing numbers of meetings related to the manifestations of universality in few- and many-body systems. Recent examples include: ‘Living Near Unitarity’ (KITP, 2022), ‘Critical Stability of Few-Body Quantum Systems’ (ECT*, 2023), ‘Quantum Few- and Many-Body Systems in Universal Regimes’ (INT, 2023), and ‘Quantum Few- and Many-Body Systems in Universal Regimes’ (INT, 2024).
Our proposed workshop will add to this series of meetings, focusing primarily on recent findings and on outstanding questions that will continue to drive the field forward.
We stress the unique effort to integrate the particle-physics community along with its lattice techniques. It is the seeming rift in how quarks and gluons are described compared with the semi-classical treatment of molecules where we seek most advancement. It is here where we expect the most gain: where universality is least expected and surprising with separation of scales and a high dimensional dynamics as the only unifying aspects.
