10TH ABDUS SALAM LECTURE - SUPERCONDUCTORS, BLACK HOLES, AND QUANTUM MATTER
Date: April 07, 2026 Time: 12:00 PM Location: LCE Auditorium - Basement SBASSE Building LUMS
Speaker: Prof Subir Sachdev, Herchel Smith Professor of Physics at Harvard University
The quantum entanglement of many particles plays a central role in many aspects of modern physics. In the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, complex entanglement leads to a quantum state which doesn’t have any particle-like excitations at all. I will describe how such many-particle systems are helping us understand modern quantum materials, such as the high temperature superconductors, and the quantum mechanics of black holes.
