Abstract deadline is next week for QELS 2026 (May 16th)! 🚀 Come join us for a week of discussions in an incredible mountain setting in Benasque ⛰️ 🔬 . Looking forward to another fantastic QELS workshop with the community. benasque.org/2026qels/

🚀Very excited to announce the 5th edition 🎂 of the workshop Quantum Engineering of Levitated Systems in August 2026 in Benasque, Spain⛰️. 📑Abstract deadline May 16th 📩Registration deadline June 10th. Check out benasque.org/2026qels/ #Optomechanics #Levitation #Quantum #Engineering

🚀 New paper out in @physrevresearch.bsky.social Grégoire F. M. Tomassi & Daniël Veldhuizen at @quidantsnsl.bsky.social observe ~1000× accelerated state expansion of #levitatednanoparticles in 260 μs. Supported by Oriol Romero-Isart at @icfo.eu journals.aps.org/prresearch/p... @ethz.ch ‪

🚀 Just like atoms, metasurfaces can be pushed or pulled by light. At @quidantsnsl.bsky.social, we demonstrate attractive and repulsive optical forces using engineered meta-atoms. Check out www.nature.com/articles/s41... in @natcomms.nature.com by Adeel Afridi et al. @ethz.ch #Nanophotonics
