Quantum Spin Liquids: Are we there yet?

⏱️About an hour long
🔬Neutron scattering reveals the invisible

Fifty years after physicists first dreamed them up, quantum spin liquids are still defying everything we thought we knew about matter. This free Stanford lecture dives into exotic states where atomic spins refuse to freeze, even near absolute zero: pure quantum weirdness brought down to earth through neutron scattering and computer simulations.
