EPS - Condensed Matter Division - Low Temperature Section

The Low Temperature Section of the Condensed Matter Division represents and provides a forum for European scientists interested in the physics of condensed matter in the very low temperature limit. In accordance with the Statutes of the Condensed Matter Division, the tasks of the LT Section are, inter alia:  to support the Condensed Matter Division in carrying out the tasks specified the Condensed Matter Division within the field of Low Temperature physics:

• to promote the support and co-ordination of research activities in condensed matter and related fields, requiring very low temperatures;
• to facilitate contacts with and between its members, in particular through the organisation and co-ordination of meetings, workshops, schools, etc.;
• to facilitate the realisation in Europe of international conferences in the field of low temperature;
• to help in the training of young researchers and in the development of their abilities in ways which may facilitate their professional future life;
• to co-operate with other sections of the Condensed Matter Division, sections of other Divisions, and European organisations or enterprises, in any common field of interest;
• to offer expertise and advice to other bodies of the European Physical Society, and to other European institutions and enterprises, in the field of condensed matter at low temperature;
• to promote the public understanding and appreciation of low temperature physics.
