New paper out today in PRL! We show that the collective Lamb shift measured in x-ray cavity QED is actually a multi-mode effect resulting from lossy cavities. Check it out: https://t.co/Jrj9j5MMjn
Establishing this required a detailed look at the fundamentals of the open Jaynes-Cummings model. In this context, we clarify the relation between pseudo-modes and quasi-normal modes, providing a criterion to identify multi-mode effects.
@plain_simon There is a lot I don't like about it, but I find its reference suggestions pretty useful. The algorithm somehow yields more important papers for me than google scholar suggestions.
@jennifer_fowlie I don't know anyone whod does CEMS specifically, but Mössbauer science is still fashionable! More so at synchrotrons and XFELs nowadays. I personally work on using Mössbauer nuclei as qubits for quantum optics.
Just tried to use chat GPT to find useful references on a new topic I am studying. Would be super useful, but did not really work unfortunately... it just invents stuff that does not exist. Did I expect too much?
Small impression from our live stream in Freiburg... we were rooting for Alain Aspect, since we had the pleasure of hosting him for a Colloquium recently. A long awaited prize for quantum physics!
@j_bertolotti There is this old "classic" in the war game genre: https://t.co/6MDfafTO8X. It e.g. features a logistics commander. I have not played it myself, but it is renowned as one of the heaviest games out there and apparently takes around 1500 hours to complete.
We are hiring! Several PhD and Postdoc positions on Nanophotonics and Quantum Optics are available in the QNanoLight group at Universidad Autónoma de Madrid. Contact us at [email protected] if you're interested. Full info at https://t.co/nnUgmSkH86
It was a pleasure to attend this wonderful workshop @ZuseInstitute last week. First real life conference in over two years and met a lot of new people from different communities ... this is what makes physics fun!
First paper of 2022, on inverse designing properties of nuclear quantum systems using x-ray cavities. Check it out: https://t.co/2aT4wKFyhy #openaccess
@LundeenOttawa I think this thread is missing a list of the different kinds... normal modes, waveguide modes, quasi-modes, pseudo-modes, constant flux states, temporal coupled modes, Fox-Li modes, Jaynes-Cummings modes, lasing modes, Hermite-Gaussian modes - anything else?
@j_bertolotti @LundeenOttawa@mickeykats I like this answer best, since it seems to fit the most general use of the term. Although I would drop the two requirements of orthogonality (see temporal coupled mode theory) and completeness (see quasi-normal modes).
