Mauterndorf Winter School 2023

22nd International Winterschool
on New Developments
in Solid State Physics,
12-17 February 2023

Following the biennial cycle, the 22nd International Winterschool on New Developments in Solid State Physics should have taken place in February 2022, which would have been a nice coincidence of numbers, if the Covid-19 pandemic had not prevented us from holding the conference then.

Shortly before the Corona outbreak (the first 2 cases in Austria were confirmed on 25 February 2020), the 21st Winterschool had very successfully taken place from 23-28 February 2020, with 220 participants from 16 different countries, mainly European (Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Finland, Italy, France, Czech Republic, Netherlands, UK), but also from USA, Australia, Canada and Brasil.

So now after 3 years, we are looking forward to the upcoming Winterschool!

 

Burg Mauterndorf

Program 

The Mauterndorf Winterschool 2023 is featuring 26 invited talks and tutorial lectures, as well as a large poster session for contributed presentations on Wednesday evening at the "Gemeindesaal" in the village centre.
The conference starts on Sunday, 12 February at 5 p.m. with a Welcome Reception and the registration in the castle.

Venue

The location of the International Winterschool on New Developments in Solid State Physics is the picturesque 13th century castle of Mauterndorf, a small village in the heart of the Austrian Alps which had already been a station on an ancient Roman trading route over the Radstädter Tauern: You can still see an original Roman mile stone in the middle of the village. On the location of the medieval castle there had then been a Roman fort.
In medieval times, the castle of Mauterndorf, situated on a rocky cliff, had been a toll station, and the summer residence of the archbishops of Salzburg.

Social Program

In the afternoon between the morning and evening sessions, there is some time for skiing, snow shoe walking or other activities in the snow or discussions in the local cafes, bars and restaurants. Mauterndorf is a small village and you will probably meet some colleagues wherever you go.
You can just step into one of the ski shuttle busses ( free of charge) with stops throughout the village and get to the cable car in a few minutes, which takes you up the mountain Großeck and Speiereck. On a sunny day it is also very nice to just go up the mountain and enjoy the wonderful view of the Austrian Alps, for example from the Panorama-Restaurant, or on the Winter Wonderland Walk, which is 3 kilometres long and with a max 6% inclination perfectly suited for sledges and toboggans or snowshoe hiking.

We would like to encourage you to take part in our SKI RACE, which has a long tradition at the Winterschool and is to be considered as a fun event! It will take place on Friday, 17 Feb, 13:00 at Großeck.

However, please bear in mind that the participation is at you own risk!

The registration for the race is possible between Monday morning and Wednesday 12:00 at the conference desk: please register either only individually or individually and as a team member. The ski teams must consist of 4 persons, among them 1 senior.

There will be separate registration lists for Ladies, Junior Gentlemen (age < 40), Senior Gentlemen (age > 40), Snowboarders, (Children) and Teams
Team: 4 persons (among them 1 Senior).
Everybody who is a member of a team has to sign up as an individual as well.
