Postdoctoral Researchers

Bijuan Chen

Research Interest: My research focuses on high-pressure condensed matter physics, specifically on studying emergent phenomena like superconductivity, magnetism, and phase transitions in quantum materials at high pressure by using novel optical techniques (like nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond), combined with transport and theoretical approaches.bijuan_chen[at]fas.harvard.edu

Jack Kemp

Research Interest: strongly-correlated quantum many-body physics, both through theory and numerical simulation, in close collaboration with experiment. The topics include but are not restricted to: the study of anomalous quantum dynamics and hydrodynamics, the realisation of exotic quantum phases in cold-atom quantum simulators, and edge zero modes, and possible applications to quantum computing ….
