SUMMARY:Presentation:2021 Ta You Wu Lecture in Physics |  A Nocturnal Discovery that Triggered a Revolution in International Metrology
DESCRIPTION:The quantum Hall effect\, an unexpected discovery at 2 a.m. on the 5th of February 1980 led to my Nobel Prize in 1985 and to a realization of a resistance standard based on fundamental constants. Since fundamental constants are the most stable quantities in our universe\, a new international system of units based on constants of nature was introduced in 2019. The talk presents an overview of the quantum Hall effect and this importance for our new definition of the mass unit kilogram.\n\nDoors to the fourth floor Rackham Amphitheatre will open at 3:00 pm for seating. Please come early! Per University policy\, each guest will need to wear a face-covering and respond to the ResponsiBLUE COVID Screening Check via their smartphone: https://responsiblue.umich.edu/sign-in\n\nThis will be an in-person event and will also be live-streamed. Livestreamed on YouTube\, https://myumi.ch/r8Dlz.\n\nMore information on the Ta-You Wu event webpage: https://myumi.ch/xmvm8
