Seminars

On an irregular basis various Special Seminars take place at the MPQ. The seminars are organized by scientists of our divisions, administration or staff representatives. The location will be announced with the event.
Host: MPQ, Theory Division
In two dimensions, Projected Entangled-Pair States (PEPS) are elegant many-body wavefunctions which capture efficiently the quantum entanglement of ground states of local quantum spin Hamiltonians. [more]
We model quantum transport through small interfaces weakly-coupled to two many-body leads under the Born approximation. [more]

A programmable quantum computer based on trapped ions (Dr. N. Linke)

Trapped ions are a promising candidate system to realize a scalable quantum computer. We present a modular quantum computing architecture comprised of a chain of 171Yb+ ions with individual Raman beam addressing and individual readout. [more]
Recently we have predicted a new quasiparticle - the angulon - which is formed when a quantum impurity (such as an electron, atom, or molecule) exchanges its orbital angular momentum with a many-particle environment (such as lattice phonons or a Fermi sea). [more]
In this presentation I will focus on discussing the interplay of Coulomb interactions and weak disorder in atomically thin two-dimensional semiconductors. [more]
