In our Lab for Emergent Phenomena we focus on one of the central paradigms in modern science: The physics of collective behaviour and organising principles. We develop theoretical concepts and tools to enhance our understanding of emergent phenomena in quantum science of light and matter, soft-matter physics, and cosmology.
New preprint arXiv:2405.12405 entitled „Unprecedented Fractional Magnetization Plateaus in a New Shastry-Sutherland Ising Compound“! Nice experimental-theory collaboration between Duke University, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Oak Ridge National Lab, and National H...
LEP members Patrick Adelhardt, Antonia Duft, Sumeet, and Kai Phillip Schmidt have attended the international conference „Entanglement in strongly correlated systems“ at the Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual in Spain. They have exchanged about our recent advances on quantum magnets with l...
Robin Krill successfully defended his master project entitled "Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations for Extended Bose-Hubbard Models" at the University of the Saarland (UdS). He has been jointly supervised by Giovanna Morigi (UdS) and Kai Phillip Schmidt from LEP. In his thesis he developped and applied ...
A team from Erlangen successfully participated in the German Physicists' Tournament (GPT) and reached the final. The team finished 3rd after teams from Aachen and Munich.
The GPT 2025 took place in Heidelberg. The GPT is a competition where students have to work on open physics problems. At the t...
LEP member Chelsea has opened her own instagram channel (@science_chelsea). The science giraffe chelsea acts as our outreach voice who reports on our activities in the domain of Quantum Science of Light and Matter and gives insights behind the scenes. Follow her to learn more!
