For many applications, materials can be made a great deal more efficient by giving them a specific nanoscale structure. Materials that organise themselves to create the desired structures, without the need for complex procedures, are particularly interesting. A research team from Universität Hamburg, DESY, the European...

Scientists at Universität Hamburg have for the first time realized a time crystal phase stabilized by controlled dissipation. The researchers used an ultracold atom platform, where a Bose-Einstein condensate is strongly coupled to a high finesse optical cavity. Discrete time translation symmetry of the driven system is...

Daniel Welsch has received the Ernst Grimsehl Prize of the Department of Physics at Universität Hamburg for the best master's degree in the course of study for a teaching degree with physics as a subject in the winter semester 2020/2021. This prize is awarded by the Association of Friends and Sponsors of Physics at...

For the first time, researchers at Universität Hamburg have loaded a fermionic quantum gas of neutral atoms into selected higher Bloch bands of an optical lattice. The work sets the stage for new fundamental insights into fermionic superfluidity in the presence of orbital degrees of freedom. The researchers led by Prof...

With a series of "Young Researcher Meetings" that has just ended, the Graduate School has found a way to mitigate some of the disadvantages of the long lockdown. Based on 39 short presentations spread over five dates, the PhD students were able to get an overview of the research status of their colleagues in the cluster and...
