Special Seminar: Solids with random stacking: the curious case of lithium
BRIM 311 2355 East Mall, Vancouver, British Columbia, CanadaAbstract: Close-packing of spheres is a problem with a long, beautiful history that spans centuries. To achieve maximal density, we must first arrange spheres into triangular layers and stack them. […]
Special Seminar: Wolf Widdra – Institute of Physics, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg: Laser-based double photoemission spectroscopy at surfaces
Abstract: With the recent progress in high-order harmonic generation (HHG) using femtosecond lasers, laboratory photoelectron spectroscopy with an ultrafast, widely tunable vacuum-ultraviolet light source has become available. Whereas HHG-based photoemission […]
