Giant Interactions in Rydberg Systems
September 15 – 22, 2022
The school will focus on the physics of Rydberg systems and adjacent fields. In particular, systems governed by long-range interactions, such as Rydberg atoms, magnetic atoms, dipolar molecules, and artificial atoms. We will deal with ultracold atoms, quantum optics and quantum computation, Rydberg excitations in the solid state, and more.

ICFO-Weizmann School on the Frontiers of Light: New Approaches to Atom-Light Interactions
July 5 – 8, 2021
Efficient and coherent interfaces between atoms and light hold the promise to unlock diverse applications in quantum technologies and novel opportunities to explore exotic quantum phenomena. Despite spectacular progress, many of the goals that researchers want to achieve remain elusive. This school will expose young researchers to some of the recent exciting approaches aimed at creating a powerful new generation of atom-light interfaces and the resulting possibilities. The new platforms to be covered include ordered atomic arrays, ensembles of Rydberg atoms, atomic interfaces with nano- and micro-photonic structures, and superconducting circuit QED-based systems.

Electron hydrodynamics
January 6 – 10, 2019
The school is dedicated to the recent rapid advancements in the field of electron hydrodynamics. It will cover the broad range of theoretical approaches that are being developed to understand the flows of strongly interacting electrons, as well as recent experimental breakthroughs in measuring these flows via transport and imaging in broad range of materials. We shall have school lectures in the mornings and afternoons, lighter evening events, a special weekend, and ample time for interaction and discussions among the participants
