Beyond BCS - An Exact Model for Superconductivity and Mottness

Beyond BCS - An Exact Model for Superconductivity and Mottness

Explore an advanced physics lecture on superconductivity and Mottness that goes beyond the traditional BCS theory. Delve into an exact model presented by Philip Phillips from the University of Illinois, recorded during the "Electron Correlations beyond the Quasiparticle Paradigm: Theory and Experiment" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Gain insights into non-Fermi liquid observations, electron transport beyond quasiparticle paradigms, and the nature of Cooper pairing without quasiparticles. Discover how this 30-minute talk contributes to the ongoing discussion about quantum matter and challenges conventional understanding of electron correlations in materials.
