Academic Training: The World of Quantum Matter

2005-2006 ACADEMIC TRAINING PROGRAMME
LECTURE SERIES
23, 24, 25, 26 January 2006
from 11:00 to 12:00 - Main Auditorium, bldg. 500

The World of Quantum Matter
M. WEIDEMUELLER / Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg

In my lecture series, I will present the recent spectacular advances in the field of quantum gases and macroscopic quantum physics. A variety of subjects will be covered including Bose condensates and degenerate Fermi gases, ultracold molecules and chemistry near absolute zero, Rydberg gases, single-atom manipulation, quantum information processing, as well as applications of cold atoms as precision targets.

The topics of the lectures are:

  1. Physics near absolute zero
  2. Bose condensation and Fermi degeneracy
  3. Molecules, Rydberg gases and other exotic species
  4. Single-atom manipulation, quantum information processing and ultracold atoms as targets in storage rings.
