PhotonIcs & Electromagnetics Research Symposium (PIERS 2025)
PIERS 2025 (also known as Progress In Electromagnetics Research Symposium) took place in Chiba, Japan, 5-9 November 2025.
The Q-DYNAMO project partner from the University of Latvia Rita Veilande presented the poster ‘Electron in the Vacuum of the Quantized Electromagnetic Field Using Spherical Coordinates in Momentum Space’ (I. Bersons and R. Veilande).
Q-DYNAMO project partners from Japan also attended the conference and presented their latest results. The following talks were given: Mark Sadgrove (Tokyo University of Science), "Methods for Polarization Control of Room Temperature Quantum Emitters"; Yining Xuan, Daito Miyazaki, and Mark Sadgrove (Tokyo University of Science), "Enhancing Quantum Emitters Using Metal Nanoparticles on Optical Nanofibers"; Puthanveettil Bhavya, Kei Iidawa, and Kali Prasanna Nayak (University of Electro-Communications), "Interfacing an Array of Single Atoms with a Nanofiber"; Kali Prasanna Nayak (University of Electro-Communications), "Interfacing Single Quantum Emitters with Fiber-guided Photons"
The 29-th Central European Workshop on Quantum Optics
The 29th Central European Workshop on Quantum Optics (CEWQO29) took place in Vilnius, Lithuania on 23-27 June 2025. The Q-DYNAMO project collaborative studies were represented by 3 project partner organisations: University of Latvia, Universitá di Parma, Italy and Università di Pisa, Italy.
The poster PI-38 ‘High-fidelity quantum control via the Autler-Townes effect’ (M.Delvecchio, T.Kirova, E.Arimondo, D.Ciampini, S.Wimberger) was presented by the project coordinator Dr. Teodora Kirova.
83-rd International Scientific Conference of the University of Latvia
As a part of the 83rd International Scientific Conference of the University of Latvia, the Institute of Atomic Physics and Spectroscopy of the University of Latvia (IAPS UL) organised an online ‘Workshop - Horizon Europe programme projects MSCA-SE at the IAPS, FST University of Latvia’ on 14.02.2025. The aim of the workshop was to present results from all the MSCA-SE projects currently implemented at the IAPS with interdisciplinary topics in physics, chemistry, nanomaterials and medicine. Five MSCA-SE projects in total were discussed.
The Q-DYNAMO coordinator Dr. Teodora Kirova summarised the progress made on WP1 ‘Quantum control via the Autler-Townes effect’. The leader of the German team Prof. Johannes Hecker Denschlag made an overview of ‘Experiments with ultracold atoms and molecules in Ulm’, emphasising current achievements in controlling few-body reaction pathways using a Feshbach resonance.
