SUMMARY:Hanbury Brown-Twiss\, Hong-Ou-Mandel\, and other landmarks in quan
 tum optics: from photons to atoms - Prof. Alain Aspect

DESCRIPTION:The second quantum revolution is based on entanglement\, disco
 vered by Einstein and Schrödinger in 1935. Its extraordinary character ha
 s been experimentally demonstrated by landmark experiments in quantum opti
 cs.  \n \nAt Institut d'Optique\, we are currently revisiting these landma
 rks using atoms instead of photons\, and after the observation of the atom
 ic HOM effect (1)\, we are progressing towards a test of Bell's inequaliti
 es with pairs of momentum entangled atoms (2).\n\n1. Lopes\, R.\, Imanalie
