Congratulations to Sofia… for her Postdoctoral Fellow at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
A nice photo with him in the BEC lab with Jean Dalibard, Alain Aspect and Yun Ye.
The 2017 Onassis Lectures in Physics on Quantum frontiers explored with cold atoms, molecules and photons was in the Honour of Serge Haroche. This year’s Nobel Prize Winner, Alain Aspect, was also one of the speakers.
Our research proposal “Cold Atom Rubidium Interferometer in Orbit for Quantum Accelerometry – Pathfinder Mission Preparation” (CARIOQA-PMP) has been approve by the EU!
The objective of the CARIOQA-PMP project is to enable Europe to deploy quantum gravimeters/accelerometers in space through a Quantum Pathfinder Mission within the decade.
The future CARIOQA of the EU is to map earth’s gravity field using

Atomtronics is an emerging field that aims to manipulate ultracold atom moving in matter wave circuits for both fundamental studies in quantum science and technological applications. In this colloquium, we review recent progress in matter-wave circuitry and atomtronics-based quantum technology. After a short introduction to the basic physical principles and the key experimental techniques needed to realize atomtronic systems, we describe the physics of matter-waves in simple circuits such as ring traps and two-terminal systems. The main experimental observations and outstanding questions are discussed. We also present possible applications to a broad range of quantum technologies, from quantum sensing with atom interferometry to future quantum simulation and quantum computation architectures.
Wolf von Klitzing’s colloquium on Matterwave Optics as a Quantum Technology is now available on Youtube.
Our proposal “Matter-Wave Interferometers” (MAWI) for an EU Doctoral Training Network has been ranked first in the Physics Panel in Europe! (the only one with a score of 99%).
The Cretan BEC group has hence one PhD position to fill. Please write to Wolf von Klitzing for details.
Congratulations to Pandora Examilioti for her viva, which she passed with excellence!
Giannis Drougakis passed the viva for his PhD with flying colors !!!
Well done Dr Drougakis !!
