High energy physics theory seminar: Jordan Wilson-Gerow (Carnegie Mellon)

Bloomberg 462

Worldline effective theories and gravitational dynamicsWorldline effective theories are incredibly useful tools for studying the dynamics of spatially compact systems, with gravitational binaries being a perfect example. In particular they allow for the import of many tools from quantum field theory, eg. Feynman diagrams, loop integration techniques, dimensional regularization, renormalization group, etc. Work in recent […]

Condensed matter and biological physics seminar: Matteo Mitrano (Harvard University)

TITLE: Quantum Control of Quantum Materials, ABSTRACT: Coherently engineering quantum states with light is a key frontier in the control of quantum materials. Over the last two decades, ultrafast lasers have revealed a variety of emergent topological, magnetic, and superconducting states in quantum materials driven far from equilibrium. Early experiments mainly adopted incoherent excitation strategies, […]

Title: Local Probes of Spin Excitations in Quantum Matter, Abstract: Major scientific discoveries are often enabled by new measurement capabilities that provide novel perspectives into complex physical problems. Recent advances and discoveries made on quantum materials have challenged experimentalists to come up with new ways to probe their intrinsic properties. In this talk I will […]
