• Abstract summary: We believe that the current model of scientific leadership, funding, and authority fails to represent many of us. It is time for a real change that calls for a different kind of force and for the participation of everyone.

• Abstract: Data show that the presence of women in quantum science is affected by a number of detriments and their percentage decreases even further for higher positions. Beyond data, from our shared personal experiences as female tenured quantum physics professors, we believe that the current model of scientific leadership, funding, and authority fails to represent many of us. It is time for a real change that calls for a different kind of force and for the participation of everyone. Women for quantum calls for a joint effort and aims with this initiative to contribute to such a transformation.

  We specialize our discussions to the one-dimensional transverse field quantum Ising model in the coherent Gibbs state. We find that quantum coherence not only recovers the quantum phase transition destroyed by thermal fluctuations. It can be manifested that these singularities are rooted in spin flips causing the sudden change of the domain boundaries of spin polarization.
