The seminar will spotlight the dynamic aspects of a quantum flow of polaritons, revealing their potential as a platform for studying complex phenomena difficult to simulate in classical systems. A particular focus will be on turbulence in a quantum system, which, beyond its fundamental interest, can serve as an ideal test bed for the study of two-dimensional classical turbulent flow.
By simultaneously mapping flow velocity and density in space, we gain insights into the ultrafast dynamics of thousands of vortex states. Additionally, we will explore the possibility of optically creating a Josephson junction and observing flux onset in an annular condensate, reminiscent of superconducting Josephson junctions.
