On 21 - 25 September 2015, distinguished international guest lecturers will cover experimental and theoretical aspects of Quantum Information, Quantum Optics and Quantum Nanophysics:

Ataç İmamoğlu (ETH, SUI) | Solid State Devices
Dieter Jaksch (Oxford, UK) | Quantum Simulations
John Martinis (UCSB/Google, USA) | Adiabatic Quantum Computation
Florian Marquardt (Erlangen, GER) | Topology in Quantum Optics
Christine Silberhorn (Paderborn, GER) | Modern Topics in Photonics

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.
