JFI Colloquium - Prof. David S. Weiss, Penn State,  “Exciting 1D gases”

3:45–4:45 pm GCIS W301/W303

929 E. 57th Street

1D gases with point contact interactions are special because they are integrable many-body systems, which means that they have many extra conserved quantities, beyond the usual few (energy, momentum, etc.).  I will explain how we make bundles of 1D Bose gases in the lab, the various ways we excite them out of equilibrium, and how we use them as model systems for studying quantum dynamics.
