On the limits of the quantum superposition principle: the role of the internal particle states
Quantum physics is one of the best-confirmed models of nature, and yet our common sense is challenged when we try to understand the quantum superposition of classically mutually exclusive states.  A series of recent experiments in Vienna has therefore been targeting the spatial superposition of isolated...
Propagating and evanescent internal waves in a deep ocean model
We present experimental and computational studies of the propagation of internal waves in a stratified fluid with an exponential density profile that models the deep ocean. The buoyancy frequency profile N.z/ (proportional to the square root of the density gradient) varies smoothly by more than an order...

Coaching Table Concerns: A Presentation/Roundtable Discussion
Photodetachment Dynamics and Dissociative Photodetachment
Molecular anions are exotic species that exhibit a wide range of chemical and photophysical phenomena. In this talk experimental studies of two molecular anions will be discussed: HOCO’? and NO2′?. The first half of the talk will focus on using the photodetachment of the hydroxycarbonyl anion,...
