Attoscience, Nobel 2023 and Quantum Simulators
Offered By: Centrum Fizyki Teoretycznej PAN via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the fascinating world of attoscience, the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics, and quantum simulators in this comprehensive lecture by Prof. Maciej Lewenstein from The Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) in Barcelona, Spain. Begin with an introduction to super-intense laser-matter physics, focusing on the phenomenon of High Harmonics Generation (HHG) and its physical nature. Discover how HHG leads to the generation of attosecond pulse trains and isolated attosecond pulses in the XUV range. Delve into recent developments in the field, examining QED aspects of attophysics. Investigate the use of quantum simulators with ultracold atoms to study atto-physics. Conclude with Prof. Lewenstein's personal account of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Physics, providing unique insights into this groundbreaking achievement in the field of attosecond physics.
