QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

Quantum error correction of decoherence and faulty control operations forms the backbone of all of quantum information processing. Despite remarkable progress on this front since the discovery of quantum error correcting codes more than a decade ago, important open problems in both theory and applications to real physical systems remain.

Dear Colleagues,

It is our pleasure to announce a seven-week workshop, "Frontiers in Quantum Simulation with Cold Atoms", to be held at the Institute of Nuclear Theory (INT) of University of Washington in Seattle from March 23 to May 8, 2015.

There will also be an International Conference on "Frontiers in Quantum Simulation with Cold Atoms" in the second week of the workshop from March 30 to April 2, 2015.

The organizers are Immanuel Bloch, Cheng Chin, Tin-Lun (Jason) Ho, Uwe-Jens Wiese, and Peter Zoller.

8th - 12th September

European Conference on Trapped Ions, September 15-19, 2014
http://www.quantum.physik.uni-mainz.de/ecti2014_index.html.de

The third European Conference on Trapped Ions will be held in Schloss
Waldthausen in a forest near Mainz. Presentations focus on current
themes in ion-trap research, including precision measurements and
fundamental physics, frequency standards, quantum optics, quantum
information, trap technology, spectroscopic techniques, and molecular
ions and chemical reactions.

"Quantum Critical Matter - From Atoms to Bulk" (QCM14)

to be held in Obergurgl, Austria, from August 18 to 23, 2014.

27 top experts from the fields of ultracold quantum gases, nanostructured and mesoscopic systems, and strongly correlated bulk materials have confirmed their participation as invited speakers (see workshop poster at http://transidee-conference.uibk.ac.at/QCMatoms2bulk14/images/QCM14_post...).

4th International Conference on Quantum Cryptography (QCrypt 2014)

Paris, France, September 1-5, 2014

Conference website: http://2014.qcrypt.net

Central European Workshops on Qantum Optics started in the 90s within a European project aimed at collaborating with Central-European countries. Since then this series of workshops has evolved into annual conferences gathering European researchers working in quantum optics, its applications to quantum information, and foundations of quantum mechanics.
