Colloquium by a rising star Giulia Semeghini (Harvard) on Tuesday September 27 [IN PERSON]

[Trivedi, Nandini]

Dear all,
Professor Giulia Semeghini will give the colloquium on Tuesday September 27 from 3:45-5:00 pm on a topic that is at the cutting edge of the quantum revolution. Coffee and Refreshments at 3:30 pm.

I hope you will attend in-person and showcase our energetic department. Zoom attendance is just not the same. And she is coming here in person so you will also get to meet her.

Undergrad and Grad Students: please stay on after her talk to ask her questions.
Best, Nandini
Topological phases and new scientific frontiers with Rydberg atom arrays

Location: 1080 Physics Research Building, Smith Seminar Room

Faculty Host: Nandini Trivedi

[Giulia Semeghini]

Abstract: Learning how to create, study, and manipulate highly entangled states of matter is key to understanding exotic phenomena in condensed matter and high-energy physics, as well as to developing useful quantum computers. In this talk, I will discuss recent experiments where we demonstrated the realization of a quantum spin liquid phase using Rydberg atoms on frustrated lattices [1] and a new architecture based on the coherent transport of entangled atoms through a 2D array [2]. Combining these results with novel technical tools on atom array platforms could open a broad range of possibilities for the exploration of entangled matter, with powerful applications in quantum simulation and information.
