Good afternoon, It is my pleasure to announce that we will have a visitor this Thursday evening and Friday. It is Sara FELLONI from Milano. On Friday, she will present her Ph.D. work entitled: "Decoherence, Errors and Noise Effects in Quantum Information Processing". The talk is scheduled for 14:00 in IFW E44. Sara will arrive on Thursday evening, and I suggest we could go for dinner with her somewhere in town. I hope many of you will join. Stefan
