First pictures of magnetic polarons now taken in Garching

Press

Physicists from the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (MPQ) and LMU München succeeded for the first time in photographing the magnetic structure around a mobile charge carrier within a crystal lattice, so-called magnetic polarons, using a quantum simulator.

An international team headed up by Alexander Holleitner and Jonathan Finley, physicists at TUM, has succeeded in placing light sources in atomically thin material layers with an accuracy of just a few nanometers.

Which one is the perfect quantum theory?

Press | News

For some phenomena in quantum many-body physics several competing theories exist. But which of them describes a quantum phenomenon best? A team of researchers from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and Harvard University in the United States has now successfully deployed artificial neural networks for image analysis of quantum systems.
