LASER SPECTROSCOPY
Prof. Dr. Theodor W. Hänsch
Are fundamental constants really constant? Are there detectable differences between matter and antimatter? How well can quantum mechanics describe simple hydrogen-like atoms and ions? Are there limits to the possible accuracy of optical atomic clocks? ...

QUANTUM DYNAMICSProf. Dr. Gerhard Rempe
En route into the new quantum world - Even one century after its invention quantum physics still remains extremely fascinating. This is because the quantum world is so radically different from the classical world of our everyday experience. ...
THEORYProf. Dr. J. Ignacio Cirac
The quantum world of atoms, molecules, and photons, is plagued by strange and paradoxical phenomena that challenge all our intuitions. For example, these microscopic particles can tunnel through classically forbidden regions, ...
ATTOSECOND PHYSICS
Prof. Dr. Ferenc Krausz
How can we control electronic currents in ever smaller and faster circuits for developing more powerful computers and telecommunication systems? How is the structure of molecules affected by electronic excitation? ...

Quantum Many Body SystemsProf. Dr. Immanuel Bloch
Understanding interacting quantum many body systems and engineering and exploiting such quantum systems for quantum information purposes pose some of the most outstanding challenges in quantum physics....
