QTSpace has been invited to coordinate the session on Quantum Technologies in Space, whose goal is to define the priorities in the field, in view of FP9. The expected output is a strategic report addressed to the EC, to be used for the definition of FP9.
Activities
Thursday, April 19, 2018 QTSpace @ European QT meetingOberkochen (Germany) |
Tuesday, April 10, 2018 to Wednesday, April 11, 2018 Realization of quantum experiments in spaceVienna (Austria) The workshop will host the targeted discussion of experts in quantum experiments with optomechanics (levitated and cantilever), as well as matter-wave interferometry. It will also invite theoreticians working on experimental concepts for large-mass matterwave interferometry experiments. |
Thursday, March 22, 2018 to Friday, March 23, 2018 Optomechanical route to macroscopic quantum superpositionsBratislava (Slovakia) The aim of this workshop is to pin-point the suitability of levitated optomechanics as a test-bed for the investigation of the validity of quantum theory at the mesoscopic and macroscopic scale; identify the fundamental challenges of such tests and the it will address opportunities offered by a space-based configuration; compare the capabilities of levitated optomechanics to those of other platforms such as magneto-levitated one for the identification of the best-suited experimental platform. |
Tuesday, February 20, 2018 to Wednesday, February 21, 2018 Implementing Quantum Technologies in SpaceErlangen (Germany) Quantum technologies enable completely new possibilities in fields ranging from sensing to metrology and secure communication. Major efforts world wide aim for implementing quantum technologies for applications. These endeavors are driven by massive public and private investments. Of particular interest are quantum technologies in space where technology traditionally is at the forefront of research and development. |
