Condensed Matter Physics in the City 2025 (CMPCity 2025) is scheduled to take place in London during the week of June 16-20, 2025. This year’s meeting stands under the heading of “Unconventional, Topological and Dynamical Order in Quantum Materials”, bringing together draw on these new developments with the goal of creating cross-disciplinary synergies between the latest developments in theory, experiment and computational approaches to quantum matter.
The meeting will showcase extraordinary recent experimental discoveries, such as the fractional quantum Hall effect in the absence of a field in twisted bilayer MoTe2, developments in new flat band material families, and the exotic superconductivity of UTe2, with chiral edge states and a colossal upper critical field, among others.
The CMPCity series is organised annually by the Hubbard Theory Consortium (formed by Imperial College London, University College London, the University of Kent and Royal Holloway University of London).

History of the meeting:
Condensed Matter Physics in the City is run by the Hubbard Theory Consortium, as one of its flagship activities since its foundation in 2010.
The Hubbard Theory Consortium brings together condensed matter groups throughout southeast England, including the groups at Royal Holloway University of London (RHUL), the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) in Harwell (including the ISIS Facilities and the Diamond Light Source), the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) at University College London, the University of Kent, and Imperial College London.
