Dear colleagues,


We are pleased to announce the 2012 CoQuS Summer School at the University of
Vienna, devoted  to the interplay between quantum mechanics and gravitation!
This year's edition will be focused on four series of lectures held by
international experts on both theoretical and experimental aspects of
gravitational and quantum physics :

• Carlo Rovelli (Marseille, FR) giving an introduction to quantum gravity
  for quantum physicists
• Philippe Bouyer (Bordeaux, FR) , on experimental gravitation and
  geophysics with matter-wave sensors
• Michèle Heurs (Hannovre, DE), on gravitational wave detection and
  quantum control
• Ulf Leonhardt (St. Andrews, UK), on gravity analogues in quantum systems

The summer school is open to interested advanced undergraduates, graduates
and junior post-docs with a good background in quantum mechanics. No
extensive background in gravitational physics is required, since this school
aims to give an introduction to topics in gravitational physics to quantum
physicists. Each series of lecture will consists of about 4 x 2 hours
lectures. Participants are encouraged to present and discuss their own
research during dedicated poster sessions. The registration fee for the
summer school is 170€.

For more information and registration, please visit

The deadline for registration is June 26, 2012 !
