Physics Colloquium: “A data-driven approach to quantifying the shear viscosity of nature’s most ideal liquid” with Dr. Steffen A. Bass

Location:

Linderman Library 317

March 9, 2023, 4:25 - 5:25pm

Over the last few years the Duke QCD group has developed techniques based on Bayesian statistics that allow for the simultaneous calibration of a large number of model parameters and the precision extraction of QGP properties including their quantified uncertainties. The computational…

Physics Colloquium: “Optical lattice clocks: From Timekeepers to Spies of the Quantum Realm” with Dr. Ana Maria Rey

Location:

Linderman Library 316

March 2, 2023, 4:25 - 5:25pm

Harnessing the behavior of complex systems is at the heart of quantum technologies. Precisely engineered ultracold gases are emerging as a powerful tool for this task. In this talk I will explain how ultracold strontium atoms trapped by light can be used to create optical lattice…

Physics Colloquium: “Quantum computing with neutral ytterbium atoms” with Professor Jeff Thompson, Princeton University

Location:

Linderman Library 316

February 23, 2023, 4:25 - 5:25pm

Quantum computing with neutral atoms has progressed rapidly in recent years, combining large system sizes, flexible and dynamic connectivity, and quickly improving gate fidelities. The pioneering work in this field has been implemented using alkali atoms, primarily rubidium and cesium…

Physics Colloquium: “Twisting quantum matter beyond the graphene paradigm” with Dr. Jed H Pixley

Location:

Linderman Library 316

February 9, 2023, 4:25 - 5:25pm

The ability to control and manipulate the strength of correlations in quantum matter is one of the central questions in condensed matter physics today. While pressure, chemical doping, or magnetic field have served as conventional tuning knobs for a wide class of correlated systems,…
