Physicists will share work on atoms, simple molecules, electrons, and light--and how they all interact--during the 52nd Annual Meeting of the American Physical Society Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (DAMOP).
Held May 31 through June 4, 2021, the virtual meeting features subjects ranging from the highly-anticipated thorium nuclear clock to the future of quantum memory to COVID-19 breath tests.
Researchers will discuss an array of fundamental questions and applied technologies. Topics include dark matter, laser and quantum optics, quantum information science, ultrafast and strong field physics, cold atoms, degenerate gases, many-body physics, charged particle collisions, fundamental constants, and the structure and properties of atoms, ions, and molecules.
Members of the media and student journalists are invited to explore 81 live sessions and 3 on-demand poster sessions. Several highlights are listed below. Please consult the scientific program for the most up-to-date schedule.
Please note all session times are in Central Daylight Time (CDT).
Complimentary registration is available to those with APS press credentials on the general registration page. Request press credentials through this form.
