We demonstrate a method for probing interaction effects in a thermal beam of strontium atoms using simultaneous measurements of Rydberg EIT and spontaneously created ions or electrons. We present a Doppler-averaged optical Bloch equation model that reproduces the optical signals and allows us to connect the optical coherences and the populations.

the FET Work Programme 2016-2017 - FETFLAG-02-2017: Coordination and Support Action for Quantum Technologies

Summary: 

The 2016-2017 FET programme has been updated in order to include a new call for a coordination action for Quantum Technologies

the FET Work Programme 2016-2017 has been adopted yesterday and is now available here: http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/ref/h2020/wp/2016_2017/main/h2020-wp1617-fet_en.pdf

As you will see on page 36, there is an additional call FETFLAG-02-2017: Coordination and Support Action for Quantum Technologies

The call will open on 23 May 2017 and close on 26 September 2017.
