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.
Dynamical phase transitions can occur in isolated quantum systems that are brought out of equilibrium by either a sudden or a gradual change of their parameters. [more]
Quantum optics and many-body physics increasingly merge together in ultracold atomic gases and certain classes of solid state systems. This gives rise to new non-equilibrium scenarios even in stationary state, where coherent and dissipative dynamics appear on an equal footing. [more]
Atomic gases at ultralow temperatures prepared in optical lattice potentials provide an exquisite platform to study many-body quantum systems out of equilibrium. [more]
Casimir-Polder forces and their consequences: from matter-wave scattering in complex geometries to CP violation and quantum friction Casimir-Polder forces between a single atom and a macroscopic body are effective electromagnetic interactions that may be attributed to the vacuum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field. [more]
In this talk, I will discuss our progress in the development of a two-photon laser-cooling scheme for hydrogen.  [more]
