Dr. Kumar: Techniques and Tools for Laser Cooling of Atoms and Particle Trapping

Heyyooo Everyone! Join us for our next event, this Wednesday at 5:30 PM in Petrie 317. Dr.Kumar will be giving a talk that will review the principles of using light forces to trap atoms and macroscopic particles. He will delve into the development of a new family of self locking lasers. These laser systems make it feasible to consider intricate experiments even with modest levels of funding. A tour of Dr.Kumar's lab will follow the talk; a rare opportunity to see his research setup first-hand. Do the math: Physics + Free Food = Fun So.... see you there?
