The workshop Relativistic Thermodynamics: From Mathematical and Conceptual Foundations to Applications, to be held on 15-17 June 2026 at Newcastle University, UK, aims to bring together researchers working across a broad spectrum of theoretical and experimental physics, including classical and quantum thermodynamics, relativistic physics, quantum field theory and gravitation, and the philosophy of physics.
The scientific programme will cover a broad range of topics, including (but not limited to):
• Stochastic and non-equilibrium thermodynamics in curved spacetime
• Foundational aspects of relativistic thermodynamics
• Thermodynamics and information in quantum field theory
• Quantum thermometry and quantum sensing
• Quantum clocks, quantum reference frames and indefinite causal order
• Gravitational and horizon thermodynamics
• Analogue gravity and emergent spacetime models
