Vortrag im Rahmen des University of Vienna Physics Colloquiums
Laser and quantum science have fueled revolutionary developments in atomic and fundamental physics. Scaling up quantum systems can drastically enhance the performance of atomic clocks and open new opportunities for discovery. Quantum technology has brought tens of thousands of atoms to minute-long coherence, enabling a new regime for measurement precision. The combination of ultrafast optics and precision metrology also provides new tools for nuclear physics, leading to the recent breakthrough of quantum-state-resolved laser spectroscopy of thorium-229 nuclear transition in crystal hosts grown in Vienna. The permeation of quantum metrology to all corners of physics sparks new ideas for testing fundamental laws of nature and searching for new physics.
A light lunch buffet will be offered before the lecture at around 15:00.
