My group's first @PhysRevLett is published today -- congrats to the quantum memory team for this work. In it, we push an atomic ensemble to absorb and reemit an optical signal faster than the natural lifetime, via the atoms' superradiant "teamwork" journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/1…

Woo, that's my supervisor!
I'm not working on this hyperbolic band theory project, but the question at the heart of it is super cool - how would quantum mechanics work in a crystal lattice in an 'Escher-esque' hyperbolic space?
Here's the paper on it: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

New research collaboration between physics and pure mathematics enables new strides toward quantum computing and opens new avenues for research in condensed matter physics. Hear from Joseph Maciejko on new research exploring hyperbolic lattices: bit.ly/3m59U4R
