Department of Chemistry,University of TorontoOrganizer Department of Chemical and Biological PhysicsContact Abstract Show full text abstract about I will describe the principles of an iterative numerically-e...» I will describe the principles of an iterative numerically-exact path integral technique that is suitable for simulating the quantum dynamics of a wide array of interacting systems in out-of-equilibrium scenarios [1-2]. The method is numerically stable, and it can accommodate multiple bosonic and fermionic reservoirs. I will apply this tool to solve various charge and energy transport problems at the nanoscale:
(i) The development of vibrational instabilities in molecular electronic rectifiers [2].
(ii) Magnetic field symmetries of nonlinear transport in Aharonov-Bohm interferometers [3].
(iii) Heat current characteristics in a nonequilibrium spin-bath model, representing an anharmonic thermal junction [4].
During the discussion, I will present insights gained from the compariosn between numerically exact simulations, approximate schemes and phenomenological approaches.

CNRS, FranceOrganizer Faculty of PhysicsContact Abstract Show full text abstract about I will present a review of research activity on developing l...» I will present a review of research activity on developing laser plasma accelerators. This review will provide an opportunity to explain how laser plasma accelerators work, and to show the incredible evolution of their performances, which has in record time, allowed physicists to produce from compact laser system accelerators that deliver high quality particle beams. I will show some examples of applications we recently identified in medicine (radiotherapy, imaging), in biology, in chemistry (radiolysis), and in physics for materials science (gamma radiography for security). With a market of few billions of dollars per year, accelerators are used intensively in modern societies. I’ll discuss the pertinences of our approach with respect to market issues. -
