Explore quantum vortices in a two-dimensional quantum fluid!
Explore quantum vortices in a two-dimensional quantum fluid! This project involves conducting new experiments, first establishing a Bose-Einstein Condensate and transferring it to a "pancake" trap, where atoms are only allowed to move in two dimensions. Read more
Electrode surface dynamics in water electrolysis for green hydrogen production (Marsden FS funded project)
Water electrolysis is the leading process for “green” hydrogen production using electricity generated from renewable sources. This hydrogen can then be applied as a form of green energy to replace fossil fuels. Read more
Approximating many-body quantum states using deep learning
Description. Many-particle quantum systems cannot be simulated in practice because the size of the vectors and matrices involved are too large to fit in a computer’s memory. Read more
Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes
Description. Monitoring Buildings, Volcanoes and Seismic Activity Using Large Ring Laser Gyroscopes. A ring laser is a self-excited optical oscillator employing a cavity where the round trip path encloses a finite area. Read more
