*_PHYSICS COLLOQUIUM_*

4:00 PM

Small Hall, Room 110

*Dr. Nandini Trivedi *[Host: Enrico Rossi]**

Ohio State University

*Title of Talk:*

/“Probing quantum phase transitions”/

*Abstract:*

At a quantum phase transition, one ground state evolves into a different 
one by passing through a quantum critical region with enhanced spatial 
and temporal fluctuations. I will discuss several ways of probing the 
quantum critical fluctuations in a system of strongly interacting bosons 
in optical lattices using deviations from the fluctuation-dissipation 
theorem. I will also discuss some novel ways of using atom-photon 
entanglement to detect correlated phases.
