In our Lab for Emergent Phenomena we focus on one of the central paradigms in modern science: The physics of collective behaviour and organising principles. We develop theoretical concepts and tools to enhance our understanding of emergent phenomena in quantum science of light and matter, soft-matter physics, and cosmology.
In the birth year of quantum mechanics, 1925, the physicist Lucy Mensing travels from the physics Christmas party in Göttingen into the future. There, she hopes to discover how the mysterious quanta have changed the world. But her journey through time to Erlangen creates an increasingly large and th...
Congratulations to Dr Jan Alexander Koziol from LEP! He defended very successfully his doctoral thesis entitled „Quantum lattice models with long-range interactions - quantum phase transitions and crystalline ground states“.
Jan Alexander Koziol focuses in his thesis on quantum phase transitions ...
Congratulations to Dr Patrick Adelhardt from LEP! He defended very successfully his doctoral thesis entitled „Excitations and quantum criticality of spin systems with long-range interactions“.
Long-range interactions in quantum spin systems can lead to fundamentally different and exotic phenomena...
Congratulations to Jonas Leibig who successfully defended his master thesis entitled „Ground-state properties of one-dimensional Dicke-Ising models. Jonas Leibig worked the last year at LEP together with Max Hörmann, Anja Langheld, Andreas Schellenberger, and Kai Phillip Schmidt. He obtained very ni...
Congratulations to Jan Hartmann who successfully defended his Bachelor thesis entitled "Anregungen und Magnetisierung eines räumlich anisotropen Shastry-Sutherland Modell. Jan worked the last month at the LEP, in particular with Patrick Adelhardt, Antonia Duft, Jan Koziol, and Kai Phillip Schmidt. ...
