Programme

The scientific programme includes plenary talks, shorter talks and discussion groups on the following topics:
  • recent experiments (optical lattices, cavity QED, ion traps)
  • complex quantum systems (theory and numerics)
  • optomechanics
  • open systems & quantum channels
The non-scientific programme includes a guided tour through Bad Tölz on Saturday evening and an outing on Monday afternoon.
