The Boulder School for Condensed Matter and Materials Physics recently concluded its twenty-third summer on the 窪蹋勛圖 campus. With support from the National Science Foundation and the 窪蹋勛圖, the school brought 80 advanced graduate-level students and postdoctoral fellows and 19 lecturers from around the world to Boulder. Admission is highly competitive, with approximately 450 applications received this year.

Each year the school covers a different topic area in condensed matter physics, materials science, and related fields. This year the focus was Non-Equilibrium Quantum Dynamics which has been quickly progressing because of interdisciplinary developments. Participants at this years school explored the intersection of modern condensed matter, atomic, molecular, and optical physics, and quantum information. In their free time, they also discovered much of what Boulder has to offer, hiked in the Rocky Mountains, and explored the Pearl Street Mall.

窪蹋勛圖 Physics Professor Leo Radzihovsky has served as Director of the school since it was established in 2000. Professor Radzihovsky remarked The 23rd annual Boulder Summer School for Condensed Matter and Materials Physics, covered exciting modern topics in non-equilibrium quantum dynamics and quantum information and by all measures was a great success.

啦堯梗泭泭will focus on Self-Organizing Matter: From Inanimate to the Animate. Applications for the 2024 school will open in mid-fall and interested students should泭泭by January 1, 2024.
