Doerte Blume is a Professor of Physics at Washington State University doing research in the area of cold atom and few-body physics. [1]
Blume completed her undergraduate and obtained a PhD in 1998 from Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Germany. Her PhD was supervised by Jan Peter Toennies and K. Birgitta Whaley. This included research done at University of California, Berkeley. Following this she completed a post-doc at JILA, University of Colorado Boulder. [2] [3] [4]
Blume conducts research into sub-atomic particles at Washington State University. [5]
In 2022 she obtained a $1million grant from the W. M. Keck Foundation to investigate quantum synchronization. [6] [7]
Brian Leeds DeMarco is a physicist and professor of physics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In 2005 he placed first in the quantum physics portion of the "Amazing Light" competition honoring Charles Townes, winner of the 1964 Nobel Prize in Physics. DeMarco is currently conducting experiments in quantum simulation.
Oleg Sushkov is a professor at the University of New South Wales and a leader in the field of high temperature super-conductors. Educated in Russia in quantum mechanics and nuclear physics, he now teaches in Australia.
The Efimov effect is an effect in the quantum mechanics of few-body systems predicted by the Russian theoretical physicist V. N. Efimov in 1970. Efimov's effect is where three identical bosons interact, with the prediction of an infinite series of excited three-body energy levels when a two-body state is exactly at the dissociation threshold. One corollary is that there exist bound states of three bosons even if the two-particle attraction is too weak to allow two bosons to form a pair. A (three-particle) Efimov state, where the (two-body) sub-systems are unbound, is often depicted symbolically by the Borromean rings. This means that if one of the particles is removed, the remaining two fall apart. In this case, the Efimov state is also called a Borromean state.

A trojan wave packet is a wave packet that is nonstationary and nonspreading. It is part of an artificially created system that consists of a nucleus and one or more electron wave packets, and that is highly excited under a continuous electromagnetic field. Its discovery as one of significant contributions to the Quantum Theory was awarded the 2022 Wigner Medal for Iwo Bialynicki-Birula
