2008 Mechanical Systems in the Quantum Regime Gordon Research Conference

该奖项为参加2008年戈登量子力学系统研究会议的学生和博士后提供资金。这将是戈登研究会议主办的第一次关于这一主题的会议。会议将于2月17日举行。2008年2月22日，在加州文图拉举行的会议将涉及一个广泛的项目，涉及一个快速扩展和潜在变革的领域，探索机械系统量子方面的实验和理论进展。这是一个新的研究领域，在过去的一年中出现了不同的社区：量子光学，引力物理和纳米尺度凝聚态物理。会议的目的是汇集国际领先的科学家以及活跃或特别对量子控制领域感兴趣的年轻研究人员和学生。会议将是一个论坛，展示这一迅速发展的领域的最新研究成果和趋势。该领域的跨学科特征将被强调。

This award provides funds for student and postdoc participation in the 2008 Gordon Research Conference on Mechanical Systems in the Quantum Regime. This will be the first conference on this topic sponsored by the Gordon Research Conferences. It is being held during the period February 17 ? February 22, 2008, in Ventura, CA. The conference will involve a broad program that touches upon one a rapidly expanding and potentially transformative field exploring experimental and theoretical advances in quantum aspects of mechanical systems . This is a new research area that has arisen in the past year from a diverse set of communities: quantum optics, gravitational physics, and nanoscale condensed matter physics.. The objective of the conference is to bring together internationally leading scientists as well as young researchers and students active or specially interested in the field of quantum control. The conference shall be a forum to present the newest research results and trends in this rapidly expanding field. The interdisciplinary character of the field will be emphasized.
