Dr Barbara Patricelli (PI)27/10/2017, 15:00The second observing run of Advanced LIGO started on November 2016; on August 1st, 2017, Advanced Virgo joined the two LIGO detectors and the network of three interferometers took data up to August 25th. In this talk I will present the first scientific results of Advanced LIGO and Virgo and give an overview of the associated electromagnetic follow-up campaign.Go to contribution page

Gabriele Rosi (FI)27/10/2017, 15:25Atom interferometry provides extremely sensitive quantum sensors especially for the measurement of inertial forces. In particular, atom gravimeters and gradiometers find vast applications in metrology measurements and in experimental tests of gravitational physics. We will report on a novel test of the Weak Equivalence Principle (WEP) using neutral atoms in coherent superposition of internal...Go to contribution page

Davide Rossini (P)27/10/2017, 16:20talkCold atomic gases endowed with a synthetic dimension are emerging as an ideal platform to address the interplay between interactions and static gauge fields. A fundamental question is whether these setups can give access to pristine two-dimensional phenomena, such as the fractional quantum Hall effect, and how. We show that unambiguous signatures of Laughlin-like states can be observed and...Go to contribution page

Dr Daniele Colosi (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico)27/10/2017, 16:45talkThe General Boundary Formulation (GBF) of Quantum Theory is a new axiomatic formulation of quantum theory combining the mathematical framework of Topological Quantum Field Theory with a probabilistic interpretation that generalises the Born rule. The versatility of the GBF allows to study the dynamics of quantum fields in far more general settings than those usually considered in standard QFT...Go to contribution page

Dr Pye Ton How (Institute of Physics, Academia Sinica)27/10/2017, 17:10talkWe theoretically study the non-analytic equation of state of a cold SU(N) Fermi gas. It has been known that Landau's Fermi liquid theory yields non-analytic corrections to density and spin susceptibility, but a good comparison between theory and experiment has been lacking due to, among other reasons, difficulties in quantifying quasi-particle interactions. Cold quantum gas is ideal for...Go to contribution page
