August 27 — "Quantum Simulation and Sensing with Atoms Interacting via Photons"

• Presenter: James K. Thompson, JILA, ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ
• Host: Ana Maria Rey
• Abstract: Photons bouncing back and forth many times between mirrors provide a way for atoms to interact at essentially infinite range. ÌýThese interactions open powerful new paths for quantum simulation and quantum sensing, allowing us to leverage the certainty provided by quantum mechanics to make very precise measurements of the world around us, or allowing us to emulate one quantum system with another to provide insights and understanding. In this talk, I will provide a sampling of my group’s work including how we use the quantum measurement process and interactions to create some of the most highly-entangled states realized in any system, realize the first entanglement-enhanced matterwave interferometer, and simulate the predicted dynamical phases of BCS superconductors.
