from 11:15 to 11:15

We review the field of (quantum) phase slips in superconducting wires: a topic that seemed old and has been spectacularly revived recently. We mostly concentrate on novel nano-device ideas exploiting new functionalities brought by coherent phase slips.

A coffe break will be served at 11h00. The seminar will be given in English.
