The conference focuses on causality and nonlocality in physics, with emphasis on its implications with time machines. In particular this issue will be dealt with from the viewpoints of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics, two theories that, even though extensively verified on their own, are seemingly irreconcilable up today.

Maxwell’s demon is still alive. Even though Landauer and Bennett allegedly exorcised him, we are witnessing his vigorous activity in
the recent literature in thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, quantum information, and information science. Moreover, the progress
in experimental techniques now allows us to see him in the lab. We are now more able than ever to gossip about his whereabouts and activities
in nature. It should be the right timing to provide researchers in relevant communities with an opportunity to share their ideas. The

Victorian Summer School in Ultracold Physics
DATE: 20th January — 31st January 2014
The third Victorian Summer School in Ultracold Atomic Physics will be held in Melbourne, Australia over a two week period during the (Southern hemisphere) summer 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.
Special Theme for 2014: Quantum physics of low-dimensional systems
VSSUP 2014 will include lectures and tutorials on the following topics:

We are pleased to announce the 2012 CoQuS Summer School at the University of Vienna, devoted to the interplay between quantum mechanics and gravitation! This year's edition will be focused on four series of lectures held by international experts on both theoretical and experimental aspects of gravitational and quantum physics :
· Carlo Rovelli (Marseille, FR) giving an introduction to quantum gravity for quantum physicists
· Philippe Bouyer (Bordeaux, FR) , on experimental gravitation and geophysics with matter-wave sensors
Two chapters of Advanced Topics in Measurements published by InTech March 2012 using variant construction to show positive evidences to resolve wave-particle duality and Bohr-Einstein debates on the foundation of the Quantum Mechanics.
In relation to classical Young double slits experiments, EPR model, Bell Inequalities, Feynman Criteria and Bohr-Einstein debates, a set of predictions and conjectures are suggested.
