SUMMARY:Quantum materials in and beyond equilibrium - Prof Christian Rüeg
 g\, Director\, Paul Scherrer Institute
DTSTART:20230616T093000Z
DTEND:20230616T110000Z

CONTACT:Siddharth Saxena (Montu)
DESCRIPTION:Spins form well-defined lattices in many insulating quantum ma
 terials and serve as model systems to study many-body states such as corre
 lated quantum dimers\, Luttinger liquids\, or magnon Bose-Einstein condens
 ates. Neutrons and photons are unique tools for high-precision studies of 
 such states in and beyond equilibrium and under multi-extreme conditions i
 n temperature\, pressure and magnetic field. An overview of current fronti
 ers in the field will be presented with special focus on exciting new oppo
 rtunities that free electron lasers like SwissFEL offer to study out-of-eq
 uilibrium many-body quantum phenomena.
