Gabriel has successfully defended his Phd thesis on April 22, 2020, via Zoom videoconference. Congratulations, Gabriel!

Michael is a co-organizer of a minicolloquium on “Magnetism and Correlations in 2D Materials in and out of Equilibrium” at CMD2020GEFES in Madrid, August 31 – September 4, 2020. Featuring invited talks by Efrén Navarro-Moratalla, James McIver, Dante Kennes, and Ralph Ernstorfer.

The IMPRS-UFAST is looking for bright young minds willing to dive into research on ultrafast dynamics and imaging of matter. Application deadline is December 2nd, 2019.

For the Sentef group we are specifically looking for candidates in two areas of research:

• Cavity-to-Floquet crossover in quantum materials
• Floquet twistronics in 2D materials

If you are interested and would like to learn more, please do not hesitate to contact Michael.

Riku Tuovinen has been granted an Academy of Finland 3-year independent funding award starting in September 2019. In his project “Ultrafast many-body correlations in quantum transport and spectroscopy” Riku will develop and apply novel theoretical and computational methods for many-body quantum phenomena out of equilibrium. Congratulations, Riku!

Riku’s paper on ultrafast signatures of Majorana zero modes is online. Congrats! This was a very nice collaboration with our friends Enrico Perfetto and Gianluca Stefanucci in Rome as well as Robert van Leeuwen in Jyväskylä.
