On Transport and Dynamical Response in Quantum Magnets - Leon Balents

Explore the latest advancements in quantum magnetism through this 47-minute conference talk delivered by Leon Balents from the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Delve into the complex world of transport and dynamical response in quantum magnets, examining recent progress in understanding quantum aspects and the intricacies of magnetic materials with entangled spin, orbital, and lattice degrees of freedom. Discover emerging low-energy quantum gauge theories controlling collective phenomena in various classes of quantum magnets. Learn about cutting-edge challenges in the field, including the search for novel topologically-ordered states of matter, computation and measurement of dynamical and transport properties, and the roles of disorder and spin-phonon interaction. Gain insights into emergent-electrodynamics induced by topological spin textures, unusual dynamics of integrable systems, and the revolutionary impact of Moiré systems on 2D quantum magnetism. Recorded as part of the Dynamical Response and Transport in Quantum Magnets conference at KITP, this talk offers a comprehensive overview of current research and future directions in the field of quantum magnetism.
