The following speakers will be present:
Aephraim Steinberg (Toronto, Canada)|
experiments in quantum foundations
Jeremy Butterfield (Cambridge, UK)|
philosophical perspective on time in physics
Terry Rudolph (Imperial College/Uk)|
quantum foundations theory
Francesca Ferlaino (Innsbruck, Austria)|
control of many-body quantum systems
Miles Blencowe (Dartmouth, USA)|
quantum-classical correspondence and gravitational decoherence
The summer school is open to interested advanced undergraduates, graduates and junior post-docs with a good background in quantum mechanics. No extensive background in the specific field is required, since this school aims to give an introduction to specialized topics in theoretical and experimental quantum physics. Each lecture series will consist of several lectures (1,5 hours each). Students from the UNIVIE and the TU WIEN can also obtain ECTS credits - please consult your course directories for further information.
Participants are encouraged to present and discuss their own research during a dedicated poster session. We will offer a poster award to the best student poster.
