Abstract
The Superstripes 2016 conference, held on June 23–29, 2016, in the island of Ischia in Italy celebrated the 20th anniversary of this series of conferences. For 20 years, structural, electronic, and magnetic phase inhomogeneities in quantum matter have been the scientific focus for a growing physics community interested in complexity in quantum matter. It has been the meeting point for different scientific communities facing the challenging project to unveil the complex space and time landscapes in quantum matter. The interesting spatial inhomogeneity length scale of multiple coexisting phases ranges from atomic to mesoscopic, and the time fluctuations are spread over multiple time scales. The response of these materials changes using different experimental techniques with different spatial and time resolution probing different aspects of the quantum complexity.
