Quantum Physics with Trapped Particles, Oct 13 to 18, 2024, Monte Verità, Switzerland
This international conference co-organized by Martin Frimmer aims to bring together experts of the fields of trapping and controlling quantum systems ranging from atoms, ions, molecules to mesoscopic micro- and nanoparticles. All this happens on top of Ascona on the Monte Verità. More information can be found on the conference website.
Past Events
This joint summer school from EPFL and ETH Zurich aims to give its participants a first general introduction on the excitonic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials, theoretical methods to describe excitons and optical techniques to characterize them. Later lectures cover topics of current interest such as many-body physics with excitons, exciton transport and cavity QED. Learn more about the event external pagehere.
At this summer school young scientists who aim to start a career in the field of quantum cryptography will have the opportunity to get a solid education on the fundamental knowledge required in this research field. The school is mainly targeted at PhD and Master students, and in exceptional cases also at postdocs. Learn more about the event external pagehere.
A Quantum Hackathon organized by the Quantum Engineering Commission for students from all universities. The goal is to tackle the hardware & software challenges of quantum science in a multidisciplinary team from beginners to experts.
Causalworlds aims to bring together experts from different areas of physics working on questions related to causality, and to provide a venue for cross-pollination of these ideas through scientific exchange between these communities.
The Solstice of Foundations Summer School on foundational aspects of quantum theory provides a solid introduction to current approaches and problems within foundational research, and is tailored for junior researchers entering the field, like Master's and PhD students, as well as Postdocs.
The QCHS summer school is organized by doctoral students from ETH Zürich and EPFL. Mainly funded by the two research institutions, it aims to connect junior researchers in quantum science and technology across Switzerland and abroad and thus stimulate future collaborative works.
A Quantum Hackathon organized by the Quantum Engineering Commission for students from all departements. The goal is to tackle the hardware & software challenges of quantum science in a multidisciplinary team of ETH, EPFL and TUM students from beginners to experts.
The Quantum Thermodynamics Summer School was designed to provide a solid introduction to current approaches and problems within quantum thermodynamics and was tailored to junior researchers entering the field. The school was hosted by NCCR SwissMap and Squid, with the support of the Quantum Center. All lectures are now online on external pageSquid’s YouTube channel.
