Surveys of the mm-wave sky are great resources for astrophysics
and cosmology. Sources that have been studied include solar system
objects, flaring stars, accreting black holes, dusty star forming
galaxies, and galaxy clusters, while cosmological...
Trapped ion crystals are a powerful platform for quantum
simulation of
spin and spin–boson models. In this talk, I will present our
recent
experimental realization of the Dicke model in a two-dimensional
crystal
of about 100 trapped ions. Despite its...
