The second Victorian Summer School in Ultracold Atomic Physics will be held in Melbourne, Australia over a two week period during the June/July 2012 mid-year break. The School will incorporate approximately 6 lectures per day on current topics in ultracold physics presented by leaders in the field, leaving room for additional tutorials and discussions.
The primary target for this school will be graduate students, although other researchers starting out in this field will also likely find the programme useful.
At present, VSSUP 2012 is scheduled to include lectures and tutorials on the following topics:
- The theory of Bose-Einstein Condensation
- Atom interferometry
- Bosonic Josephson junctions
- BECs in optical lattices
- Quantum technologies
- Trapped ions and their applications
- Polarons, molecules and critical phenomena in 1D Fermi gases
- Spin-orbit coupling and spintronics
- Entanglement and quantum causality
Preliminary lecture program now available online.
