Competition between Weak Quantum Measurement and Many-Body Dynamics in Ultracold Bosonic Gases (Dr. W. Kozlowski)

Date: Sep 12, 2016
Time: 03:30 PM - 04:30 PM (Local Time Germany)
Speaker: Dr. Wojciech Kozlowski, University of Oxford, UK
Room: Herbert-Walther-Hörsaal
Host: MPQ, Theory Division

Trapping ultracold atoms in optical lattices enabled numerous breakthroughs uniting several disciplines. Although light is a key ingredient in such systems, its quantum properties are typically neglected, reducing its role to a classical tool for atom manipulation. [more]

How to resolve the proton radius puzzle? (Ass. Prof. G. Paz)

Date: Jun 17, 2016
Time: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM (Local Time Germany)
Speaker: Asst. Prof. Dr. Gil Paz, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Wayne State University, Detroit, USA
Room: Herbert-Walther-Hörsaal
Host: Dr. Randolf Pohl, Laser Spectroscopy Division

In 2010 the first measurement of the proton charge radius from spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen was found to be five standard deviations away from the regular hydrogen value. [more]
