APS Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics

The APS Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (DAMOP) is a group within the American Physical Society dedicated to the study of matter at the atomic and molecular level. It encompasses research on the properties and interactions of atoms and molecules, exploring fundamental questions about light, matter, and their behaviors. Scientists in this division work on applications ranging from quantum computing to developing new technologies in imaging and communication. The division fosters collaboration, shares knowledge through conferences, and publishes findings to advance our understanding of these essential aspects of physics.
