A Closer Look at Universality in Efimov Physics - Eric Cornell

Explore a 43-minute conference talk by Eric Cornell from JILA, delivered as part of the Opportunities and Challenges in Few-Body Physics: Unitarity and Beyond KITP conference. Delve into the intricacies of universality in Efimov physics, a topic that bridges atomic and nuclear physics despite their vastly different scales. Gain insights into the current status of few-body physics near unitarity, where the two-body scattering length dominates. Discover how this presentation contributes to cross-disciplinary dialogue between theory and experiment, spanning fields such as nuclear, atomic, molecular, condensed matter, high-energy, and mathematical physics. Learn about the unifying principles of universality and their implications for organizing complex physical systems. Understand the significance of the three-body Efimov effect in connecting seemingly disparate areas of physics. Benefit from the expertise of coordinators Doerte Blume, Olivier Dulieu, Chris Greene, and Alejandro Kievsky in this comprehensive exploration of few-body physics at the frontiers of scientific understanding.
