Quantum Glass

Most quantum systems eventually follow the laws of equilibrium statistical
physics after they come to equilibrium with their environment. Recently,
however, some intriguing exceptions known as quantum glass have been
discovered. Quantum glasses remain quantum even at large size scales and long
times and they support new quantum phases of matter. Come join us to explore
their surprising properties. |
| Rahul Nandkishore is an Assistant Professor of Physics and a Fellow of the
Center for Theory of Quantum Matter at the University of Colorado Boulder. His
research is focused on the dynamics of many body quantum systems, in par t
icular seeking to understand new non-equilibrium phases of matter that may be
realized therein. Rahul received his BA and MSci from the University of
Cambridge and his PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was
then a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Theoretical Science at Princeton
University. He has won Young Investigator awards from the U.S. Army and Air
Force research offices, as well as a Sloan Research Fellowship. He is a member
of the Foundational Questions Institute. |
