Watching electronic ice melt | Science science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… I’m delighted to share a perspective I co-authored with Brian Skinner (@gravity_levity), highlighting an exciting new experiment that captures quantum melting in a disordered 2D Wigner solid.

We’re celebrating #IYQ2025 with monthly #quantum science collections. March’s edition explores measurement-induced quantum phase transitions — where measurement competes with internal evolution, triggering a phase transition in entanglement structure. 🔗 go.aps.org/4iCyRPU

@InnaVishik The utility of photovoltaics seems possible precisely because the science is so boring: it's the same p-n junction that we've had since the 1940s. The more interesting the science, the more skeptical one must be of claims of utility.

If you want to contact your senators/congressmen about the NIH freeze, the advice I've been given is to keep it brief and emphasize why it matters to you personally. Here's what I sent just now. science.org/content/articl…
This is one of the great (and dangerous) things about getting a PhD: it the last remaining realm of education where there is enormous variance in what and how you learn. It still produces a wide range of thinking styles and competencies among people getting the same degree.

Join us TOMORROW, 11/4, at 12:45 pm in Foldy Room and Zoom for a condensed matter seminar! Brian Skinner (@gravity_levity) of @OSUPhysics will be speaking on "Johnson noise thermometry using ohmic and hydrodynamic electrons." #physics #condensedmatter @cwru @cwruartsci

This is one of the most aesthetically unpleasant things I have ever seen. Imagine thinking that quantum mechanics is just a jumble partial differential equations and ugly special functions.
