Imaging the Surface States of a Strongly Correlated Topological Insulator Hear how Harvard physicists study electron behaviour within exotic materials such as topological insulators. Please click here for Seminar flyer. All welcome. Abstract: The prediction and subsequent discovery of topological band insulators with robust spin-polarized surface states has launched a new subfield of physics over Read More

Magneto-Optical Polarisation Spectroscopy with Synchrotron Radiation on Graphene Seminar flyer can be downloaded here. All welcome. Abstract: Polarisation spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation is a powerful tool for both, the investigation of structural and magnetic order in bulk material and two-dimensional systems. After giving an experimental review on polarisation detectors for synchrotron radiation the application to Read More

Doing science is seldom formulaic or prescriptive. It is exciting, creative, and highly rewarding. A group of leading Monash scientists will share brief insights into the challenges they face when undertaking cutting edge STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) research. Each speaker will tell stories from their research tackling some of the most pressing problems Read More

FLEET is proud to support the Melbourne Girls in Physics Breakfasts. Dark matter: It surrounds us and penetrates us; it binds the galaxy together. But what it is it really? Are we sure it exists at all? Can it really be explained by tiny invisible particles? I’ll get you up to date on what we Read More
