Where:
Physikzentrum Bad Honnef
Scientific organizers:
Prof. Dr. Dmitry Budker, University Mainz ∗ PD Dr. Frank Hohls, PTB Braunschweig ∗ Dr. Gunta Kunakova, University of Latvia ∗ Prof. Dr. Vyacheslavs Kashcheyevs, University of Latvia
Active research collaboration between German and Latvian scientists currently spans a number of exciting research areas of quantum science and technology including single-electron nanoelectronics, novel 2D materials, quantum metrology with levitated magnets, atomic and color-center magnetometry, among others. This Workshop will bring together representatives of the diverse research communities with a goal of fostering cross-topic “fertilization” and strengthening and broadening the bi-national cooperation, as well as expanding international collaboration beyond the two nations. The workshop, open to international participation beyond Latvia and Germany, will feature overview talks by top experts in the respective fields, contributed talks and posters, and plentiful opportunities for informal interactions in a beautiful setting of the Bad Honnef Physics Centre.
The conference language will be English. The Wilhelm and Else Heraeus-Foundation bears the cost of full-board accommodation for all participants.
