QuAMP 2007 is sponsored by: 

EPSRC

 

Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council



QuAMP 2007 will be a broad international conference covering the wide range of activities in the DAMOPP division of the IoP. Internationally leading speakers will present the latest ideas and results at the forefront of research, structuring their talks to be accessible to a broad audience. Researchers at all levels are encouraged to participate and there is strong EPSRC support to allow young researchers to participate at very low cost. Participants are encouraged to register in good time as the number of places available is limited.


The conference topics will include:

  • Attosecond lasers, high harmonic generation, laser plasmas
  • Collision physics and low temperature plasmas
  • Spectroscopy and dynamics with synchrotron, FEL, THz and IR sources
  • Coherent control of atoms, molecules and light
  • Quantum metrology, atom optics and optical lattices
  • The AMO/condensed matter interface: Metamaterials, BEC, vortices, etc.
  • Quantum information, single atoms and photons, atom and ion chips
  • (Ultra)cold molecules, few-body quantum systems, cavity cooling
