Quantiki

We are pleased to advise that the Quantum Optics VIII conference will take place from 26 May 2013 to 1 June 2013 in Poland in Warsaw area. The conference website is live at http://phoqus.fuw.edu.pl/quantumopticsviii/. Posters can be submitted till 8th April 2013 and registration is available till 10th April 2013.

We are pleased to invite postgraduate researchers, from inside and outside the UK, to exchange ideas on the mathematical aspects of relativistic quantum physics. A special focus will be given to relativistic quantum information, a relatively young field which combines techniques from quantum field theory, quantum gravity, quantum information and quantum optics.

Our invited speakers reflect the diversity of areas covered:

Prof. Bob Coecke (Oxford)
Dr. Ivette Fuentes (Nottingham)
Dr. Etera Livine (Lyon)
Prof. Tim Ralph (Brisbane)

QIPC 2013 will cover:

Quantum information and quantum communication.

Physical realizations of quantum systems for information technology such as photons, single atoms, ions, molecules, nuclear and electron spins, superconducting circuits, micro- and nano-mechanics, hybrid quantum systems, degenerate quantum gases.

Topical subjects such as foundations of quantum information, quantum measurements, quantum interferometry, cavity QED, optical lattices, quantum memories, many-body systems.

Time: 2pm GMT/UTC
Speaker: Roger Colbeck
Title: No extension of quantum theory can have improved predictive power
Abstract:

The 8th Conference on the Theory of Quantum Computation, Communication and Cryptography, will be held at the University of Guelph, from 21st - 23rd May 2013.

You are cordially invited to attend the International Conference on Quantum Metrology (QM) in Poznan, Poland. The QM 2013 is organized by Poznan University of Technology (Poland) with collaboration with Friedrich-Schiller University in Jena (Germany).

Following on from the success of the previous two events, the aim of this colloquium is to showcase recent research in quantum algorithms. We have five excellent speakers:

Andrew Childs
Maarten van den Nest
Ben Reichardt
Jérémie Roland
Pawel Wocjan

There is no conference fee and we are able to offer travel support to UK PhD students who do not have funding from their home institutions.
