Congratulations to Nico Bassler who has defended very successfully his doctoral thesis entitled "Quantum Optics with Atoms and Molecules" on Tuesday, 06.05.2025. Nico was jointly supervised by Claudiu Genes at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (now Technische Universität Darmstadt) w...
Today the president of FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg Joachim Hornegger visited our LEP as well as the FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.QuantumTechnologies. Great exchange on various topics including our research on quantum science of light and matter, future projects and activities. Of course, also our team ...
This week Andreas Alexander Buchheit from the Universität des Saarlandes visited us. He gave a talk entitled "Numerical methods for quantum matter with long-range interactions" in our talk series of the FAU Profile Center Light.Matter.QuantumTechnologies. We further intensively discussed to directly...
We welcome Jan Hartmann as new member of our team. He works as a Bachelor student for the next three months on a topic in the field of frustrated quantum magnetism.
New preprint arXiv:2405.12405 entitled „Unprecedented Fractional Magnetization Plateaus in a New Shastry-Sutherland Ising Compound“! Nice experimental-theory collaboration between Duke University, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Oak Ridge National Lab, and National H...
LEP members Patrick Adelhardt, Antonia Duft, Sumeet, and Kai Phillip Schmidt have attended the international conference „Entanglement in strongly correlated systems“ at the Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual in Spain. They have exchanged about our recent advances on quantum magnets with l...
Robin Krill successfully defended his master project entitled "Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations for Extended Bose-Hubbard Models" at the University of the Saarland (UdS). He has been jointly supervised by Giovanna Morigi (UdS) and Kai Phillip Schmidt from LEP. In his thesis he developped and applied ...
A team from Erlangen successfully participated in the German Physicists' Tournament (GPT) and reached the final. The team finished 3rd after teams from Aachen and Munich.
The GPT 2025 took place in Heidelberg. The GPT is a competition where students have to work on open physics problems. At the t...
LEP member Chelsea has opened her own instagram channel (@science_chelsea). The science giraffe chelsea acts as our outreach voice who reports on our activities in the domain of Quantum Science of Light and Matter and gives insights behind the scenes. Follow her to learn more!
New publication entitled „Quantum-critical and dynamical properties of the XXZ bilayer with long-range interactions“ in Physical Review B (see https://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevB.111.024409). Nice collaboration between LEP members Patrick Adelhardt, Antonia Duft, and Kai Phillip S...
