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.Month:
Non-standard Bose-Hubbard models are relevant for the study of strongly correlated quantum physics thanks to their rich phase diagram and the possibility to simulate them using ultracold atoms in optical lattices. [more]
Anyons are two-dimensional quasiparticles with exotic statistics that can be used for topological quantum computation. What makes them interesting for this is the concept of fusion and braiding. [more]
To thermodynamically address quantum nanoscopic scenarios that involve very small thermal baths and strong system-bath correlation, we suggest a new framework that is based on the principle of passivity. [more]
Quantum light-matter interfaces that reversibly map photonic quantum states onto atomic states, are essential components in the quantum engineering toolbox with applications in quantum communication, computing, and quantum-enabled sensing. [more]
Resonating valence bond states have played a crucial role in the description of exotic phases in strongly correlated systems, especially in the realm of Mott insulators and the associated highTc superconducting phase transition. [more]
