We are very fortunate to have two recent Ph.D. defenses in our @CUBoulder Experimental Nuclear Physics Group group. Congratulations to Dr. Dan Lis and Dr. Joey Clement, for their thesis work on the @BrookhavenLab sPHENIX Experiment under the direction of my colleague Jamie Nagle!

These young scientists helped build and operate a new collider detector, and then go on to personally produce some of the first physics results - a rare and impressive accomplishment.

[Physical Review X @PhysRevX]

Using Lieb-Mattis states, a new entanglement-enhanced protocol for differential phase sensing in two-node quantum sensor networks is immune to common-mode noise but robust to local imperfections. The work introduces a unitary and dissipative protocol.

[Physical Review X @PhysRevX]

Scientists have discovered super resonance — a regime of resonance in which the mode maintains a broadband out-of-phase response well beyond its bandwidth — and shown that it enables fully passive, broadband suppression of flow instabilities.

New research published by JILA team including physics grad student Jarrod Reilly and Prof. Murray Holland ⬇️

[JILA @JILAscience]

JILA researchers have proposed a new superradiant laser design for next‑generation “active” atomic clocks that overcomes two major challenges: atom heating and vibration sensitivity. Their findings were recently published in @PhysRevLett.
