Quantum control uses coherent electromagnetic fields to manipulate
dynamical processes at the microscopic scale in order to reach a
particular target state or realize a desired evolution in time. The
ultimate goal is to control complex processes at the heart of chemical
reaction dynamics, quantum information science or biological
functionality. Until recently, this goal was out of reach due to the
overwhelmingly large number of relevant degrees of freedom, often coupled
to one another and the surrounding environment. With the latest
technological advances and progress in our understanding of complex
systems, the boundaries of control are constantly expanding, finally
allowing to tame complex quantum systems.
The goal of this conference is to bring together theorists and
experimentalists pushing the frontiers in this diverse field at the
intersection of AMO physics, physical chemistry, quantum information
science, and applied mathematics. It will highlight new avenues for
quantum control from artificial intelligence all the way to neuroscience,
focusing on the control of ultrafast and ultracold dynamics, many-body
correlations and quantum thermodynamics, with applications in spectroscopy
and imaging, nano-plasmonics and quantum technologies. Poster sessions are
an essential and traditionally very lively part of the Conference on
Quantum Control of Light and Matter. Every participant is encouraged to
present highlights from her or his most recent, and preferably yet
unpublished, work.
The conference will be preceded by a two-day Gordon Research Seminar (GRS)
organized by and for early-career scientists. In addition to offering
tutorial lectures on various aspects of quantum control, it will provide
them with a unique opportunity to discuss their own research with their
peers.
