Welcome

The second meeting of the QUEST center will maintain its spirit of diversity and will bring together experts from various fields who share a common interest in deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and searching for enlarging the circle of its practical applications. Systems that will be considered in the workshop include, but are not limited to, entangled photons, ultracold atoms and molecules, superconducting circuits, nano-mechanical resonators, spins in semiconductors and defects in diamonds.
