Physics Colloquium, May 10, 2005Recurrent themes from quantum dots to quarksJames P. VaryIowa State UniversityMesons, baryons, nuclei, atoms, molecules, quantum dots and other intensively investigated systems have common physical foundations. These systems have a fixed number of fermion constituents, from two to a few hundred fermions. Strong correlations due to the Pauli exclusion principle and to the interactions place extreme challenges on theoretical frameworks. I will present some recent approaches to these problems with illustrative applications - including exact solutions in certain cases. I will also demonstrate animations that might be helpful in overcoming some pedagogical challenges. 3.30 p.m., Robert Smith Seminar Room, 1080 PRBReception served at 3:00 p.m., Atrium, PRB |
