Atomic and Molecular Physics

Concentration Area: Atomic and Molecular Physics

Line of Research: Atomic and Molecular Physics

Description: Study of excitation and ionization reactions in atomic and molecular media. Elastic and inelastic electron and positron scattering by molecular targets. Rotational excitation of molecules by electron and positron impact. Study of the interaction of photons and charged particles with molecules through spectroscopic techniques. Multiple ionization reaction in atomic and molecular media with identification of the formation mechanisms of multicharged final states.

Line of Research: Quantum Optics and Quantum Information

Description: Quantum optics consists in the study of light and its interaction with matter, taking into account the Quantum Theory. Quantum Information studies the processing, storage and transmission of information through systems whose behavior necessarily requires a description through Quantum Theory. The use of quantum systems for processing and transmitting information may lead to gains in processing time and information transmission security. The development of this line of research covers the theoretical and experimental study of the foundations of quantum mechanics and the development of the bases of thermodynamics applied to quantum systems. In addition, it studies the implementation of computing and quantum information protocols aiming at gains through the so-called quantum parallelism.
