Dear colleagues, we are happy to announce the 15th Annual Conference on Relativistic Quantum Information (North), which will take place on June 23–27, 2025, at the Università degli Studi Federico II, Napoli, Italy. See https://agenda.infn.it/event/RQIN2025

This will be the main annual conference of the “International Society for Relativistic Quantum Information” (ISRQI), https://www.isrqi.net/, for the Northern hemisphere in 2025. It will be also the first annual general conference of the COST Action CA23115 “Relativistic Quantum Information (RQI)”, https://www.cost.eu/actions/CA23115/

Scope

ISRQI provides a platform for inter-disciplinary research on the interface of relativity, gravity and quantum theory, involving modern concepts of information theory. The goal is to address fundamental questions, such as how quantum theory and gravity work together. Special emphasis is placed on possible experimental verification. The topics of the conference include:

• QFT in curved spacetime and black hole information
• Foundations of relativistic quantum field theories
• Information in QFT and quantum gravity
• Interface between quantum physics and gravity
• Quantum-foundation experiments (tabletop and space)
• Causal structure and quantum theory
• Analogue gravity

Speakers

The list of invited speakers presently includes:

• Emily Adlam (Chapman University,Orange)
• Časlav Brukner (IQOQI Wien)
• Harry Buhrman (UvA, Amsterdam)
• Enrico Calloni (University of Naples)
• Daniel Carney (LBNL, Berkeley)
