This edition of the Giambiagi school will focus on recent advances in one of the most active branches of physics in recent decades: the control of macroscopic mechanical systems at the quantum limit. In recent years, various techniques have succeeded in cooling small mechanical systems of micro- and nanometric dimensions to the limit where quantum phenomena begin to be observed. Reaching the point of observing quantum effects has required the development of new materials and new techniques such as trapping and optical control, and particularly new cooling methods. These systems offer a platform for conducting experiments on topics such as quantum gravity, the quantum-classical transition, non-equilibrium thermodynamics, the Casimir effect, and low-temperature solid-state physics.
