Physikalisches Institut, kleiner Hörsaal, Philosophenweg 12
Montag 16:15 bis 17:45 Uhr
The Seminar explores the synergies and communalities between the physics of the coldest and the hottest systems we can study experimentally in the laboratory: cold quantum gases and the quark-gluon plasma. It brings together interested students and researchers and experts working in one or both of these areas.
This seminar continues the QGP--Cold-Atoms Seminar of the summer term 2008, is more discussion-based and is focussed on
- Aspects of transport and hydrodynamics
- Physics of phase transitions
Topics are assigned anytime by the respective Chair listed below.
