Scientific Context:
The seminar brings together
experts from quantum information, photonic band gap materials, and noise
induced stabilization phenomena (such as Stochastic Resonance),
sharing a common interest in
decoherence, and has an interdisciplinary scope
from mathematics to
experimental physics. Special emphasis is directed towards the training
of promising PhD students and young PostDocs, and this will be
ensured by a series
of advanced lectures on selected topics of the seminar program.
In addition to the lectures already confirmed, there will be
plenty of time
for individual discussions and seminars on the most recent developments.
