SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:APPLIED PHYSICS I ULTRAFAST XUV SPECTROSCOPY OF VAN DER WAALS MATERIALS
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOur world is 3D\, yet electrons in van der Waals materials can behave as if they live in 2D sheets\, or even along quasi-1D chains. How does this reduced electronic dimensionality shape the motion of photoexcited charge\, and does it survive when a material is driven far from equilibrium? This nonequilibrium regime is central to both light-driven material function and the emergence of transient states that have no equilibrium counterpart. Answering these questions requires a probe that combines femtosecond time resolution with sensitivity to individual atomic sites. In this talk\, I will introduce our development of table-top ultrafast extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) spectroscopy for single-crystalline van der Waals materials. Broadband XUV pulses access multiple elemental core-level transitions simultaneously\, allowing us to distinguish the responses of electronically active metal sites from those of surrounding ligands. I will present our latest measurements of charge redistribution\, screening\, and coherent lattice motion in van der Waals materials\, and discuss how these results open a site-resolved view of the 2D electronic world far from equilibrium.\n\nBio:\nYuki Kobayashi is an Assistant Professor of Chemistry and a fellow of the Quantum Research Institute at the University of Michigan. He received his Ph.D. from UC Berkeley and was a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University. Since starting his laboratory at Michigan in 2023\, his group has developed ultrafast XUV and strong-field spectroscopies to study electronic and structural dynamics in quantum materials.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:APPLIED PHYSICS I Safety Awareness\, Personal Safety & Emergency Preparedness: Active Shooter Response
DESCRIPTION:Retired Police Officer and DPSS Community Engagement team member Candace Dorsey will present an informative and practical seminar on active shooter preparedness. The session will focus on recognizing potential threats\, understanding how to respond during an active shooter incident\, protecting oneself\, and supporting others while minimizing additional risk.\n\nOfficer Dorsey brings more than 31 years of law enforcement experience with the Detroit Police Department\, Eastern Michigan University Police Department\, and the University of Michigan Division of Public Safety and Security (DPSS). Throughout her distinguished career\, she has served in a variety of roles\, including police officer\, crime prevention coordinator\, active attacker instructor\, Special Victims Unit liaison\, and the University of Michigan's first Empowerment Self-Defense lead within DPSS.\n\nDrawing on her extensive professional experience and expertise\, Officer Dorsey will share current\, practical strategies to help participants make informed decisions\, respond effectively\, and increase their chances of staying safe during an active shooter emergency.\nhttps://dpss.umich.edu/news-and-alerts/news/our-stories-candace-dorsey/\n\nPlease join us for this important and potentially life-saving seminar designed to increase awareness\, preparedness\, and confidence in responding to an active shooter situation.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Quantum Research Institute | Photon-Mediated Interactions for Quantum Sensing and Simulation
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/93973918910?jst=2\nIn-Person: Michigan Memorial Phoenix Project PML2000\n\nAbstract:\nPhotons bouncing back and forth many times between highly reflecting mirrors provides\na novel way to mediate interactions between laser-cooled atoms held between the\nmirrors. These all-to-all photon-mediated interactions provide a unique set of tools for\nboth quantum simulation and sensing.  In this talk\, I will discuss our efforts to sculpt\nthese interactions in order to expand the palette of cavity-mediated interactions that can\nbe a realized\, including exchange interactions [1\, 2]\, many-body gap protection of\nquantum coherence [1-3]\, XYZ interactions [4]\, 3 &amp\; 4-body interactions [5]\, and\ndissipative interactions [6-7]. I will high light applying these interactions to simulate\ndynamical phases of superconductors [8-10] and enhancing matterwave interferometers\n[2-5\, 11] and optical clocks [12-14].\n[1] Norcia et al\, Science 361 259 (2018)\n[2] Luo et al\, Science 384 551 (2024)\n[3] Niu et al\, PRL 134 (11) 113403 (2025)\n[4] Luo et al\, Nature Physics 21 916 (2025)\n[5] Luo et al\, Science 390 925 (2025)\n[6] Schafer et al\, Nature Physics 21 902 (2025)\n[7] Song et al\, Science Adv. 11\, eadu5799 (2025)\n[8] Muniz et al\, Nature 580 602 (2020)\n[9] Young et al\, Nature 625\, 679 (2024)\n[10] Young et al\, PRL 134 (18) 183404 (2025)\n[11] Greve et al\, Nature 610 472 (2022)\n[12] Robinson et al\, Nature Physics 20 208 (2024)\n[13] Bohnet et al\, Nature 484\, pages 78 (2012)\n[14] Norcia et al\, Science Adv. 2:e1601231 (2016)\n\nBio\nProfessor James K. Thompson earned his undergraduate degree in Physics from Florida State University and his Ph.D. in Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.  His doctoral work with David E. Pritchard focused on comparing the masses of two trapped ions with precision better than ten parts in a trillion for testing Einstein's mass-energy relationship E=mc2.  As part of this work\, James and his colleague Simon Rainville also discovered a novel method for making non-demolition measurements of the quantum state of single molecules.  James was awarded the APS DAMOP thesis prize for this work.  James moved to the MIT laboratory of Vladan Vuletic at the MIT/Harvard Center for Ultracold Atoms for his postdoctoral work\, where he developed atomic quantum memories and entangled photon sources using laser-cooled atoms.  Since moving to JILA and the Department of Physics at the University of Colorado\, James's work has focused on studying how to exploit collective and quantum effects to advance precision measurement and explore many-body physics. His work includes the demonstration of highly entangled spin-squeezed states\, the realization of superradiant lasers based on mHz linewidth transitions\, development of novel spectroscopy and laser cooling techniques\, and explorations of quantum many-body simulation and dynamical phase transitions.
