Lecture of Professor Eugene Demler, PhD

‘Quantum Simulators: Pointillist Perspective оn Many-Body Physics’ is the title of the lecture to be delivered by Professor Eugene Demler, PhD, on Tuesday, 3 September, at the SASA Grand Hall, at 11 a.m.

Professor Demler is one of the leading theoretical physicians specializing in the broad field of strongly correlated quantum systems, including high-temperature superconductivity, antiferromagnetism, quantum Hall systems, Bose-Einstein condensate, topological insulators and time crystals. His pioneering research has been instrumental in orienting a new field of quantum simulators toward using ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices to simulate a solid state of matter.

In an engaging and accessible manner, the lecture will present experimental emulators of the Fermi-Hubbard model, one of the quintessential models in physics of condensed matter. New experiments with optical lattices of resolution at the individual atom level allow direct insight into the many-particle states of such systems. The lecturer will give an overview of the properties of doped Mott insulators, acquired through those experiments, including a demonstration of pairing caused by magnetic correlations. He will also discuss new perspectives for the study of kinetic magnetism provided by experiments with ultracold atoms in moiré materials.
