DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jean-Michel Raimond\nhosted by Johannes Fink\nAbstract
 : The exploration of the puzzling features of the quantum\, like state sup
 erpositions\, entanglement or measurement processes is a thriving experime
 ntal field. It is driven by fascinating applications of the quantum\, like
  quantum metrology\, quantum information processing or quantum simulation.
 Rydberg atoms\, long-lived and extremely strongly coupled to external fiel
 ds\, are ideal tools to explore these basic quantum features. We will revi
 ew a few explorations of the quantum performed at Collège de France using
  these remarkable states.The strong interaction of circular Rydberg states
  with microwave fields in high quality superconducting cavities lead to id
 eal measurements of the photon number\, illustrating all postulate of quan
 tum measurement\, or to the generation of field states reminiscent of the 
 famous Schrödinger cat.  Coherent manipulations in the complex Rydberg m
 anifold lead to the observation of quantum Zeno dynamics and to the realiz
 ation of ultra-sensitive electric field measurements. Finally\, we will pr
 esent a quantum simulator project emulating spin chains with laser-trapped
  circular Rydberg atoms.
