AQT – Framsteg inom kvantteorin
vid Linnéuniversitetet, 14-17 juni 2010. Ankomstdag 13 juni; avresedag 18 juni.
The Advances in Quantum Theory (AQT) conference is arranged by ICMM, International Centre for Mathematical Modelling in physics, engineering and cognitive sciences, at Linnaeus University in Växjö, Sweden. Linnaeus University is the name of the new university created when Växjö University and Kalmar University merged on January 1, 2010.
This is the 12th conference arranged by ICMM which is devoted to quantum foundations, especially the clarification of fundamental questions. For previous conferences, see www.vxu.se/msi/konferens.
The Växjö series is the longest continuous series of conferences devoted to quantum foundations in the history of quantum mechanics. During previous conferences we were fortunate to have not only physicists (theorists as well as experimentalists), but also mathematicians and several philosophers discussing the foundations of quantum theory. Fundamental questions of quantum mechanics, especially information theory, quantum computing, cryptography and teleportation have continued to be central topics in this series of conferences.
Besides the main conference block – General Questions of Quantum Foundations – special sessions will be organized.

Time and place
The conference starts on Monday, June 14 (arrival day June 13) and the lectures will finish (late afternoon) on Thursday, June 17. Please note that the last day of the conference is a full day of lectures, so that the standard departure date would rather be the next day, that is Friday, June 18.
Registration and Abstract
Invited Talks: 30 min + 10 min questions.
Contributed (oral) talks: 20 min (including questions). The number of possible contributed talks is restricted to 20. Papers for contributed talks will be selected based on the "first come, first served" principle. The number of poster presentations is not restricted.
Please register by using the registration form. It will provide the possibility to submit an abstract. If you apply for a special session, please send your abstract to the session’s organizer as well. The deadline for registration is 15 April 2010.
