  • J. Robert Schrieffer Strange Quantum Numbers in Condensed Matter
    Wednesday, May 1, 2002 3:00 pm APS Auditorium, Building 402, Argonne National Laboratory APS Colloquium home J. Robert Schrieffer Nobel Laureate National High Magnetic Field Laboratory Florida State University, Tallahassee [email protected] http://www.physics.fsu.edu/research/NHMFL.htm Strange Quantum Numbers in Condensed Matter Physics The origin of peculiar quantum numbers in condensed matter physics will be reviewed. The source of spin-charge separation and fractional charge in conducting polymers has to do with solitons in broken symmetry states. For superconductors with an energy gap, which is odd under time reversal, reverse spin-orbital angular momentum pairing occurs. In the fractional quantum Hall effect, quasi particles of fractional charge occur. In superfluid helium 3, a one-way branch of excitations exists if a domain wall occurs in the system. Many of these phenomena occur due to vacuum flow of particles without crossing the excitation of the energy gap. John Robert Schrieffer received his bachelor's degree from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1953 and his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois in 1957. In addition, he holds honorary Doctor of Science degrees from universities in Germany, Switzerland, and Israel, and from the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Cincinnati, and the University of Alabama. Since 1992, Dr. Schrieffer has been a professor of Physics at Florida State University and the University of Florida and the Chief Scientist of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. He also holds the FSU Eminent Scholar Chair in Physics. Before moving to Florida in 1991, he served as director for the Institute for Theoretical Physics from 1984-1989 and was the Chancellor's Professor at the University of California in Santa Barbara from 1984-1991.

The Nobel Prize instituted on the lines of its mentor and founder Alfred Nobel's last will to establish a series of prizes for those who confer the “greatest benefit on mankind’ is widely regarded as the most coveted international award given in recognition to excellent work done in the fields of Physics, Chemistry, Physiology or Medicine, Literature, and Peace. The Prize since its introduction in 1901 has a very impressive list of winners and each of them has their own story of success. It is heartening that a seminar is being organized annually focusing on the Nobel Prize winning work of the Nobel laureates of that particular year. The initiative is indeed laudable as it will help teachers as well as students a lot in knowing more about the works of illustrious recipients and drawing inspiration to excel and work for the betterment of mankind. I am sure the proceeding to be brought out on the occasion will be highly enlightening.

  • Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy for Condensed Matter Issue Date: 2017-07-05 1 Introduction
    Cover Page The handle http://hdl.handle.net/1887/50492 holds various files of this Leiden University dissertation Author: Wagenaar, Jelmer J.T. Title: Magnetic resonance force microscopy for condensed matter Issue Date: 2017-07-05 1 Introduction Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is known for its application as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It provides the spatial mapping of 1H nuclei in biological tis- sues and is therefore used in hospitals around the world. 1 Glover and Mansfield 2002 The resolution of MRI is limited to the micrometer scale1, which makes it impossible to obtain information of struc- tures on the nanometer scale, a holy grail in the fields of medicine, chemistry and physics. In the early nineties, Sidles (1991) came with a solution to combine the force microscopy techniques sensitive to atoms with that of magnetic resonance techniques: Mag- netic Resonance Force Microscopy (MRFM) was born. The technique was promising, big steps were taken, and the holy grail of atomic resolution imaging of biological tis- sues seemed within an arm’s reach. Unfortunately, the last steps are the most difficult. The technique is experimentally challenging and so far, the images of biological structures are no better than those obtained by other conventional techniques. In order to be an attractive technique, MRFM needs to be scientifi- cally relevant while the technique is further improved to- wards the holy grail of imaging biological structures on the nanometer scale. In this thesis, we show how MRFM can usefully con- tribute to the field of condensed-matter. In this chap- ter, we give a short history of why NMR has been, and still is, an important technique in the understanding of condensed-matter systems.

  • Changing Concepts of Light and Matter
    Evolving Concepts of Nature Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Acta 23, Vatican City 2016 www.pas.va/content/dam/accademia/pdf/acta23/acta23-haensch.pdf Changing Concepts of Light and Matter Theodor W. Hänsch Introduction Light and matter, just as space and time, play a central role in our life. Evolution has given our brain a compelling intuition for these concepts. This intuition has been essential for survival of our species, but it can hin- der our progress towards a deeper understanding. Light Light was long considered as something given by God. Artists learned to use of colours to express beauty and emotions. Leonardo da Vinci ob- served in his Tratto della Pittura that it is possible to arrange colours in a circle so that the most pleasing combinations are opposites. Already around 300 BCE, Euclid recognized that light travels along straight lines. There were many unsuccessful early attempts to find out the speed of light, including experiments by Galileo Galilei. The first quan- titative estimate was made in 1676 by Olaf Roemer from astronomical observations of the moons of Jupiter. He estimated a speed of light which was about 26% smaller than the value of 299,792,458 meters per second, as it is now determined for light in vacuum. Isaac Newton was perhaps the first to investigate systematically what happens when a ray of white sunlight is sent through a glass prism, so that the light is dispersed into a rainbow of colours. Newton argued that these different colors must correspond to different kinds of light particles. Light waves Around the beginning of the 19th century, Thomas Young demonstrated that light behaves like a wave.
