NORDITA is the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics. Our purpose is to carry out research and strengthen the Nordic collaboration within the basic areas of theoretical physics. The main research areas at Nordita are:

The institute is run jointly by Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) and Stockholm University and is located on the premises of AlbaNova University Center in Stockholm.

CURRENT PROGRAM

Workshop:
Quantum Matter in Low Dimensions: Opportunities and Challenges

30 August — 24 September 2010

The workshop is aimed at bringing together experts in the fields of nanoscale and low-dimensional condensed matter physics, quantum gases, integrable models, statistical and quantum field theory, and mathematical physics, to develop interdisciplinary communication and collaborations. Experimentalists will be visiting for shorter periods, to provide overview talks on recent developments.
A conference, co-sponsored by INSTANS, will be held 6-10 September.
