The 23rd International Conference on Atomic Physics ICAP 2012

The selection of hot topic talks is closed.

Abstracts are currently being reviewed.

The 23rd International Conference on Atomic Physics will be held in the Ecole polytechnique, a high level graduate school close to Paris. Following the tradition of ICAP, the conference will present an outstanding programme of invited speakers covering the most recent subjects in the field of atomic physics, such as

Fundamental atomic tests and measurements,
Precision measurements, including atomic clocks and atom interferometers,
Ultracold gases and Bose Einstein condensates,
Ultracold Fermi gases,
Atoms and molecules in optical lattices,
From two-body to many-body systems,

Quantum information and simulations with atoms and ions,
Quantum optics and cavity QED with atoms,
Ultrafast phenomena and free electron lasers,
Beyond atomic physics (bio, optomechanics, astro...).

Contributed papers will be presented in active poster sessions.

Summer School

A Summer school addressed to PhD students and young researchers attending the conference will be held the week before at the École normale supérieure in Paris. Organized by Jean Dalibard and Frédéric Chevy, it will cover most of the topics presented at the conference.
