Quantum Phenomena in Strongly Correlated Systems

Charlista: Andrea León, U de Chile

Resumen: 
Within condensed matter physics, the study of quantum or strongly correlated materials is a field where many of the most fascinating phenomena in fundamental physics are emerging, such as magnetism, superconductivity, topological insulators, among others. Understanding the origins of these phenomena remains one of the greatest challenges in solid-state physics. Currently it is widely recognized that solving these problems is essential for making definitive progress in the design of next-generation functional materials. In this talk, we will explore the fascinating world of quantum materials, focusing on those that exhibit phase transitions, superconductivity, and novel magnetism, which are central to my
current research [1-3].
