Description of the School:
Since about 20 years interest has grown very fast in the study of atomic and molecular clusters as well as nanoparticles such as quantum dots. The small size and the finite number of constituents lead to novel structural and thermodynamic properties with no equivalent in the bulk. The physics and chemistry of clusters remains a largely interdisciplinary subject. The present school will take advantage of this interdisciplinarity with outstanding lecturers having their background in atomic and molecular physics, condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, chemistry and physical chemistry, and last but not least computational physics.
The school aims at providing advanced doctoral and post-doctoral researchers with the state of the art of theoretical concepts and methods.
In addition to the already confirmed lectures there will be additional lectures and seminars on recent developments in the fields covered by this school. There will be plenty of time for personal work, discussions, organizing small working groups and to get to know each other.d doctoral and post-doctoral students in order to familiarize them with the frontiers of this research.
