Centre for Atom Optics and Ultrafast Spectroscopy

Welcome to the Centre for Atom Optics and Ultrafast Spectroscopy
CAOUS was established at Swinburne as a new strategic initiative in 1999. The Centre, led by Professor Peter Hannaford, is part of the Faculty of Engineering and Industrial Sciences. CAOUS, together with the Centre for Micro-Photonics (CMP) is housed in the Swinburne Optics and Laser Laboratories (SOLL)

CAOUS hosts nodes of the ARC Centres of Excellence for Quantum-Atom Optics (ACQAO) and Coherent X-ray Science (CXS).
