Handel Minuet from Water music Prague Brass Soloists https://fqmt.fzu.cz/19/ Time, Einstein and the coolest stuff in the universe William Daniel Phillips Joint Quantum Institute, National Institute of Standards and Technology and University of Maryland, Gaithersburg, USA At the beginning of the 20th century Einstein changed the way we think about Time. Now, early in the 21st century, the measurement of Time is being revolutionized by the ability to cool a gas of atoms to temperatures millions of times lower than any naturally occurring temperature in the universe. Atomic clocks, the best timekeepers ever made, are one of the scientific and technological wonders of modern life. Such super-accurate clocks are essential to industry, commerce, and science; they are the heart of the Global Positioning System (GPS), which guides cars, airplanes, and hikers to their destinations. Today, the best primary atomic clocks use ultracold atoms, achieve accuracies of about one second in 300 million years, and are getting better all the time, while a new generation of atomic clocks is leading us to re-define what we mean by time. Super-cold atoms, with temperatures that can be below a billionth of a degree above absolute zero, use, and allow tests of, some of Einstein's strangest predictions.

Dieter Vollhardt Center for Electronic Correlations and Magnetism University of Augsburg, 86135 Augsburg, Germany In the natural sciences, and especially in physics, a theory is much more than a guess: it is a coherent framework of postulates based on experimental evidence, which can explain observations and predict new effects. In my lecture, I will speak about the na- ture of scientific theories, with a focus on theories in physics. I will discuss their power and explain why, for example, Einstein's theory of relativity is of great importance even in everyday life. I will then concentrate on the unusual properties of systems made of many interacting constituents. In such “many-particle systems” unexpected and com- plex phenomena can emerge, ranging from stop-and-go traffic on a road all the way to magnetism in a material.
