We are primarily experimentalists using ultra-high vacuum techniques including molecular-beam epitaxy (\u201cmillion buck evaporator\u201d), scanning tunneling microscopy, and both blanket and focused ion implantation. We have also developed \u201cexperimentalist\u201d computational efforts aimed at enhancing understanding of solute incorporation in alloys (Monte Carlo-Molecular Dynamics simulations of ion-solid interactions) and plasmon-enhanced light-emission from semiconductor nanocomposites (electromagnetic simulations of light-matter interactions). Our primary focus is on processing-structure-property relationships in epitaxial semiconductor films, nanostructures, and heterostructures. Recently, our efforts have expanded to include topologically non-trivial materials based upon covalently-bonded and layered semiconductors and semimetals. In this talk, I will present highlights of on-going projects and opportunities for new graduate students.\n\nBio\nRachel S.

While foundational progress was first achieved in quantum optics and few-body quantum simulators, extending these ideas to complex many-body states in correlated materials remains a major challenge. In this talk, I will introduce the entanglement-witness framework as a practical route for characterizing entanglement through experimentally accessible solid-state measurements. I will begin with the Bell test and discuss how its underlying logic can be generalized to entanglement witnesses in material systems. Recent examples include the detection of spin entanglement in quantum magnets using neutron scattering and spin-orbital entanglement using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering. These approaches can also be extended to nonequilibrium settings, opening opportunities to manipulate entanglement with light. In the second half of the talk, I will move beyond distinguishable local degrees of freedom and consider entanglement among indistinguishable fermions. This motivates a generalized framework for multipartite electronic entanglement based on the cumulant reduced density matrix and nonlinear spectroscopic responses. With this strategy, we can further connect transport-noise measurements in cryogenic materials to an electronic entanglement metric, enabling the certification of entanglement in the fractional Chern insulating state of twisted MoTe2.\n\nBio: Yao Wang is an associate professor in Emory University.

The contribution sensitive to the higher-group structure appears at sub-leading order in the double-soft expansion. Treated within the context of the chiral effective field theory, there are further, non-universal contributions to the sub-leading soft theorem which depend on Wilson coefficients of higher-derivative operators.

Finally, I will outline recent progress toward approximate error correction tailored to analog quantum systems. Together, these developments point toward a broader view of analog quantum computing, in which large-scale quantum devices are not only simulators of specific models, but flexible computational resources whose capabilities can be systematically unlocked.\n\nBio\nSusanne Yelin's research interests are in theoretical quantum optics and quantum information science.

Here, I will discuss several studies that, in different ways, address the physics of how size is set and how precisely it can be controlled. First, I will introduce a simple phenomenological framework that allows one to consider tradeoffs between noise in the actual growth process and in a system's internal measurement of its own size. I will show how this framework places a bound on the size precision of individual bacterial cells and analyze data from recent experiments to show that, at least in some circumstances, the measured precision is very near this bound. Then, I will extend the framework to consider how sizes can be coordinated by chemical signals, for example between organs like the left and right wings of a fruit fly, and show that theory severely limits how well this can be done. Finally, I will study the noisy dynamics of growth of multi-cellular tissues in the presence of various feedback laws, finding that only certain forms of mechanical feedback can specify a unique organ size. Along the way, I will introduce a formalism to describe the elasticity of growing objects with strong connections to differential geometry and observe that growing tissues tend to show power law density correlations, reminiscent of those also observed in models of the early universe.", "occurrence_notes":"Hybrid", "guid":"153254-21915536@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/153254", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "campus_maps_id":"163", "room":"340", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Applied Physics","Physics"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21915536 } , "152747-21914457": { "datetime_modified":"20260923T131538", "datetime_start":"20261012T150000", "datetime_end":"20261012T160000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-10-12", "date_end":"2026-10-12", "time_start":"15:00:00", "time_end":"16:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"HEP-Astro Seminar | Does the Higgs boson talk to itself?

In this non-technical talk, he will also discuss the basic physics and the history of the ideas underlying this model.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"150452-21909468@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/150452", "building_id":"1000165", "building_name":"Weiser Hall", "campus_maps_id":"47", "room":"170 & 182", "location_name":"Weiser Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Astronomy","Faculty","Free","Graduate Students","Physics","Staff","Undergrad Physics Events","Undergraduate Students"], "website":"https:\/\/lsa.umich.edu\/physics\/news-events\/saturday-morning-physics.html", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"", "event_large":"", "event_large_2x":"", "event_large_lightbox":"", "group_thumb":"", "group_thumb_square":"", "group_large":"", "group_large_lightbox":"", "event_large_crop":"", "event_list":"", "event_list_2x":"", "event_grid":"", "event_grid_2x":"", "event_feature_large":"", "event_feature_thumb":"" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21909468 } , "148611-21904525": { "datetime_modified":"20260930T163217", "datetime_start":"20261022T110000", "datetime_end":"20261022T120000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-10-22", "date_end":"2026-10-22", "time_start":"11:00:00", "time_end":"12:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"Quantum Research Institute | Thinking Inside the Box: Quantum Many-Body Frontiers with Ultracold Fermions", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"Quantum Research Institute | Thinking Inside the Box: Quantum Many-Body Frontiers with Ultracold Fermions: Nir Navon (Yale University)", "event_subtitle":"Nir Navon (Yale University)", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Zoom: In the Meeting Invite\nIn-Person: West Hall 411\n\nAbstract:\nRecent progress in the control of complex quantum systems has made it possible to revisit\nlong-standing questions, realize thought experiments once deemed inaccessible, and explore\nnew terrain. Our contribution to this progress has been the development of an experimental\nplatform that creates ultracold quantum fluids in spatiotemporally programmable optical\npotentials, engineered with advanced electro-optic devices.\nIn this talk, I will share our explorations into the physics of fermions confined in \u2018boxes of\nlight\u2019, a deceptively simple stage that gives rise to remarkably rich behavior [1]. Highlights\ninclude few-body recombination in multicomponent fermions [2,3], the first observation of\nthe quantum Joule\u2013Thomson effect for fermions [4], strong-drive spectroscopy of Fermi-\npolaron quasiparticles [5], the first direct observation of the Lindhard response [6], the\nobservation of the emergence and breakdown of Fermi\u2019s Golden Rule in a strongly\ninteracting system [7], and the unveiling of a new correspondence between short-time and\nlong-time behavior in quantum dynamics [8]. Together, these studies span a wide range of\ntopics\u2014thermodynamics, few-body physics, quantum impurity problems, and\nhydrodynamics\u2014showcasing both long-predicted effects finally brought into view and\nsurprising new phenomena.\n[1] N.

He received his Ph.D. in 2011 from the \u00c9cole Normale Sup\u00e9rieure in Paris (France), where he worked with Christophe Salomon and Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Chevy on the thermodynamics of ultracold Bose and Fermi gases. Afterwards, he worked on trapped-ion quantum information in the group of Roee Ozeri at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel). From 2013 to 2018, he was a Junior Research Fellow at Trinity College, Cambridge (UK), working with Zoran Hadzibabic on homogeneous Bose gases in optical box traps. He joined the Yale faculty in 2017.\n\nHis group has built an apparatus that produces strongly interacting Fermi gases in programmable potentials. This apparatus has made it possible to experimentally address quantum many-body problems where theory offers few, if any, reliable answers. The group's recent work includes the observation of the as-yet unexplained recombination dynamics of three-component fermions, the emergence of sound in a Fermi fluid with tunable interactions, the strongly driven Fermi polaron, the first observation of the quantum Joule-Thomson effect for fermions, and the emergence and breakdown of Fermi's Golden Rule in a many-body system. His awards and honors include a Packard Fellowship (2017), a Sloan Research Fellowship (2019), an NSF CAREER Award (2020), the New Horizons Lectureship in Physics at the Solvay Institutes (2023), Outstanding Referee of the APS (2023), and a Scialog Fellowship of the RCSA (2025).", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"148611-21904525@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/148611", "building_id":"1000167", "building_name":"West Hall", "campus_maps_id":"163", "room":"411", "location_name":"West Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Applied Physics","Astronomy","Chemistry","Computer Science And Engineering","Electrical And Computer Engineering","Electrical Engineering And Computer Science","Materials Science","Physics","Quantum","Quantum Computing","Quantum Science"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of Physics", "group_id":"1965", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/09\/event_148611_original-1.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":1, "first_occurrence":21904525 } , "153045-21914978": { "datetime_modified":"20261002T120446", "datetime_start":"20261022T120000", "datetime_end":"20261022T130000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-10-22", "date_end":"2026-10-22", "time_start":"12:00:00", "time_end":"13:00:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"GCC South Africa: Energy Landscape Info Session", "occurrence_title":"GCC South Africa: Energy Landscape Info Session #1", "combined_title":"GCC South Africa: Energy Landscape Info Session: GCC South Africa: Energy Landscape Info Session #1", "event_subtitle":"", "event_type":"Workshop \/ Seminar", "event_type_id":"21", "description":"Join Professor August Evrard and CGIS Advisor, Joy Richardson, to learn more about the CGIS: Global Course Connections (GCC) in Cape Town, South Africa - Energy Landscape program.
