QUROPE Quantum Information Processing and Communication in Europe

Dear atom opticians, we would like to announce the 22nd Young Atom Opticians conference (YAO) to be held in Munich - on the Garching research campus - from Sunday, 21st to Friday, 26th of February 2016. The YAO conference is an international meeting aiming at PhD and Master students working in fields related to Quantum Optics and Atomic and Molecular Physics. It gained reputation as an excellent platform for young researchers to present their work and to establish networks among postgraduate researchers in the European atomic physics community. Aimed at both experimental and theoretical physicists, the meeting covers various facets of modern quantum optics and allows exchange in a relaxed atmosphere. Apart from talks and poster presentations by the young researchers, the scientific programme features five invited talks: Immanuel Bloch, Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Garching, Germany Francesca Ferlaino, University of Innsbruck, Austria Michael Fleischhauer, University of Kaiserslautern, Germany Ed Hinds, Imperial College, London, United Kingdom Gerhard Rempe, Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Garching, Germany Further information is available on the webpage http://www.yao-conference.org. Abstract submission and registration will be opened soon. The submission deadline is December 1st, 2015. The conference fee of 200 EUR covers accommodation from Sunday to Friday, breakfast and lunch on the conference days, city tour and conference dinner. Please feel free to forward this announcement to your colleagues. The participants of the conference are usually young PhD candidates, but the conference is also open to master students or other young scientists in the field of AMO physics. The number of participants will be limited to about 90. Best regards, Alexander Prehn on behalf of the YAO 2016 organizing committee
