| Title: | Proposed Experimental Probes Of Non-abelian Anyons (Colloquia) |
|---|---|
| Start Date: | 11/29/2011 |
| Time: | 4:15 pm |
| Location: | 1 LeConte Hall |
| Speaker: | Ady Stern |
| Affiliation: | Professor of Physics, Weizma Institutle of Sciences, Israel |
| Contact Person: | Sarah Wittmer (510) 642-3034 |
| Details: | I will describe what non-abelian anyons are and how they may be used for topological quantum computation. I will then focus on several proposed experiments that can serve as litmus tests for identifying non-abelian anyons in the quantum Hall effect and in other systems. My talk will assume NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE of any of these scary looking concepts. |
