Planets form from disks of dust and gas surrounding young stars. As they grow, these new planets inherit their chemical composition from the surrounding material and then sculpt it through gravitational interactions to form gaps and other asymmetric structures. In the last decade, […]
Speaker: Mark Rudner (U Washington) “Dynamical quantum materials” When pushed out of equilibrium, quantum materials can host interesting types of internal fields -- dc or ac electric fields, currents, etc., […]
