Explore cutting-edge physics research in this 3-hour 21-minute Kavli Foundation Special Symposium from the APS March Meeting 2024. Delve into far-from-equilibrium dynamics and quantum computing with Mikhail D. Lukin, investigate emergent collective oscillations in ultra-dense crowds with Denis Bartolo, and examine broken symmetries in living matter presented by Nikta Fakhri. Learn about Pulsar Timing Arrays as the next frontier in gravitational wave detection from Chiara Mingarelli, and conclude with David A. Weitz's unique perspective on non-equilibrium physics through the lens of chocolate. Gain insights into diverse areas of physics research, from quantum computing to astrophysics, presented by leading experts in their respective fields.
