Venue
Nordita, Stockholm, Sweden
Scope
In the last decades, the study of nonequilibrium physical systems have played a major role in the physics community. As remarkable signatures of nonequilibrium behaviour are found in the study of fluctuations of these processes, considerable effort is nowadays drawn towards uncovering general laws and theories of fluctuations. In particular, first-passage time observables have also been shown to be excellent indicators of out-of-equilibrium behaviour.
This workshop aims to bring together both experts and young researchers in the field to reflect on the current day status of fluctuation theories and of first-passage time observables, as well as future directions and open problems.
The workshop will cover theory as well as applications, e.g., to stochastic thermodynamics, climate science, etc. Attendance is open to theorists and experimentalists, physicists and applied mathematicians, interested in the topic.
Themes and preliminary program schedule
We will have 4 invited talks (40+10 mins), 14 contributed talks (20+5 mins), and plenty of time to discuss. Talks will focus on fluctuation theories and first-passage time studies and will range from theory to applications and experiments.
We will accept contributed speakers until the program is full.

Accommodation and travel support
Travel and accommodation for invited speakers will be covered by Nordita, however all costs for dependents/family need to be met separately. Contributed speakers and participants should pay travel and accommodation themselves, besides exceptional cases for which Nordita will be able to offer some financial support.
Please be aware that unfortunately, scammers sometimes approach participants claiming to be able to provide accommodation and asking for credit card details. Please do not give this information to them. If you are in any doubt about the legitimacy of an approach, please get in contact with the organizers.
