Description: |
A major problem of quantum field theory in curved spacetimes, and quantum gravity more generally, is the lack of sufficient observational and experimental guidance. To address this issue we proposing a multidisciplinary workshop to stimulate the exchange of ideas involving possible connections between quantum gravity and easy-to-access physical systems whose description is well-established in other fields, such as fluid dynamics and superfluidity. The proposed workshop brings together the following communities: - Semi-classical quantum gravity - Analogue gravity - Experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics - Experimental and theoretical superfluidity smr2355@ictp.it  |
