2 the conference... The conference is organized by Marian Smoluchowski Institute of Physics of the Jagiellonian University, Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw, and the Institute of Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with the Center for Quantum Technologies of Atoms and Light. The meeting focuses on the latest achievements in the rapidly growing field of quantum engineering with a particular emphasis on the broad field of atomic physics, including precision measurements; ultracold Bose and Fermi gases; ultracold molecules; quantum simulators and quantum information with atoms and ions; quantum optics. All accepted participants are invited to present a 30 minute talk during the conference.
