In honor of the 15 year anniversary of the PSI program I ran an unofficial survey in which I asked the alumni from all years a number of fun questions about their lives, views, and experiences since leaving the program. The first part of my talk is a presentation of some of the survey results, covering questions like 'how many papers have you written?', and 'do you think AI will destroy...

In this presentation, I will talk about my personal journey in physics – starting in high school and concluding with my research in quantum many-body control. In the first half, I will discuss what motivated me during the different stages of my studies and share a few insights that I learned on the way. In the second half, I will dive deeper into my current field of research: quantum many-body...

ABSTRACT:

Quantum gravity is a notoriously deep subject, spanning topics such as quantum field theory, general relativity, statistical mechanics, and the many seemingly distinct attempts to unify these three pillars of physics. “Catching up”, even within a single subfield of quantum gravity, can be a daunting... -

Project Proposal
Project: The rapid development of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices has made it an exciting time to study adaptive quantum dynamics: out-of-equilibrium systems consisting of unitary evolution, projective measurements, and feedback based on measurement results. Even simple measurement-only dynamics have been found to host interesting steady-state phases, exhibiting symmetry-breaking...

Project Proposal
Mental health and behavioural health issues such as depression, anxiety, and suicide are growing concerns in colleges and universities in North America and around the world. In particular, when graduate students leave the more structured setting of their undergraduate studies, they tend to face more complex circumstances including familial and financial responsibilities. Since 2000, 90% of...

In the 15 years since the birth of the PSI program, addressing the consequences of climate change has become one of the greatest global challenges. Effective response requires actions on multiple fronts, and there are many opportunities for the physics community to engage in meaningful ways.

Project Proposal
When I was in my last year of high school, I participated in a summer camp on "didactics of mathematics", where I spent a full week sharing with other high school students around mathematics, and it was one of the best experiences I remember from that time of my life.
During this summer camp, we had an activity where we got to meet "proofs without words", a concept in mathematics where you...

Project Proposal
Within academia it is widely acknowledged that some of the most prominent physicists encountered challenges developing interpersonal skills. For instance, speculation suggests that Newton and Einstein may have belonged to the autism spectrum. In fact, we do not need to look far to notice that a considerable number of physicists diverge from neurotypical behavior; a mere conversation among...

Project Proposal
The technological and social reverberations of theoretical research, and especially theoretical physics, have long been an object of public speculation and imagination. This is reflected strongly at Perimeter - in the institute‘s founding, ethos, and architecture. Residents at PI regularly pass under a reminder that „today‘s theoretical physics is tomorrow‘s technology“.
The paradox of...
