Joint PITT-CMU Colloquium: Eugene Demler (Harvard)

December 11, 2017 - 9:30pm to 11:00pm

Title: Quantum disequilibrium
 
Abstract: Recent progress in the understanding of non-equilibrium quantum dynamics of many-body systems will be discussed. Applications to electron systems and ultracold atoms will be considered. Examples include photo-induced Cooper pairing in superconductors, prethermalization in 1d condensates, mesonic resonances in the Fermi Hubbard model. Possible connections of these phenomena to other areas of physics will be pointed out.
