A spoonful of scandal with that? Teatime, 16:00
We're fresh out of love, but there may be scandal and we certainly have sugar. Bring your own cup, please! Love and scandal are the best sweeteners of tea. Henry Fielding (1707-1754) "Love in Several Masques"

[Seminar TODAY] Atomtronics and cavity QED experiments in Auckland.
I will discuss two experiments at the University of Auckland. In the first experiment we consider a two dimensional Bose gas in an "atomtronic" circuit. We will look at the effects of Anderson localization and of quantum turbulence.
In the second experiment we consider an optical nanofiber, which is part of a fiberoptic ring resonator, interacting with atoms in a MOT. We see strong coupling between atoms and photons, and show saturation of the system for 13 photons in the resonator.
Dr. Hooglerland's expertised field
My research is been centered around the interaction and correspondence between light and matter, and the application of its principles to other areas of research. At low temperatures, matter can be made to behave much like light, i.e., best described by waves. In its interaction with such matter, light can behave like it is composed of particles. Laser cooling and trapping forms a key technique in understanding this interplay. I apply these cooling and trapping techniques to experimental research areas of fundamental atomic physics, quantum chaos, quantum information, and atom lasers. From this research emerges a deeper understanding of the quantum world, which determines in turn what happens in the world around us. Spin-offs from this research I am involved with are improved spectroscopic techniques, laser techniques, interferometric high-precision measurements and atomic beam applications.

The bottom is out of the Universe--so have some tea, 16:00
Had a terrible week (and it's not even over yet)? Is your New Year off to a lousy start? Worry not, friends, we've got you covered. Tea and biscuits will be served at 16:00, restaurant level of Center Building. You will still have problems, but hey, at least you can also have tea.
We had a kettle; we let it leak:
Our not repairing made it worse.
We haven't had any tea for a week...
The bottom is out of the Universe.

[Seminar] "Double Field Theory" by Falk Hassler
Speaker: Falk Hassler UNC at Chapel Hill & University of Pennsylvania Date : Tuesday, January 9, 2018 Time : 3:30pm-4:30pm
Workshop: “How to get the most out of your postdoc”
Your PhD taught you how to practice science; your postdoc should be used to develop the skills you need to successfully manage a research plan and a team . What are these important skills? Does the skill set depend on an academic system? This workshop will address these and many other crucial-to-your postdoc questions.
