Universal Dynamics and Non-Thermal Fixed Points - Sebastian Erne

Explore universal dynamics and non-thermal fixed points in non-equilibrium many-body physics through this 48-minute conference talk by Sebastian Erne at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Delve into topics such as universal properties, random defect models, deformation of solutions, and non-thermal fixed points in isolated systems. Examine measurements, analysis techniques, and the maximum likelihood function used in studying these phenomena. Learn about helium star condensation and gain insights into scaling analysis and preliminary results from fast quenches. Recorded as part of the 2021 Non-Equilibrium Universality in Many-Body Physics KITP Conference, this talk bridges the gap between statistical physics, AMO, condensed matter, and high-energy physics, offering valuable perspectives on far-from-equilibrium universality and novel phases of matter.
