Seminar#1 (9:00-9:45): Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen paradox, Bell inequalities, entanglement and quantum steering
Speaker: Dr. Chau Nguyen, University of Siegen (Siegen, Germany) / [slides] (file is protected by a password )
In 1935, Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen described a thought experiment illustrating that quantum mechanics can deeply disturb our very intuition of locality, eventually leading them to regard quantum mechanics as being incomplete. We give a simple introduction to the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen thought experiment, followed by insights given by Schrödinger and a short (and necessarily incomplete) introduction to their further implications. We then discuss the modern approaches: Bell inequalities, separability, quantum steering, and their imprints in the theory of quantum information processing and the foundation of quantum mechanics. In the latter part of the the talk, we emphasise on quantum steering, the most recent and most closely related approach to the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen original intuition. Technical characterisation of quantum steering, the role of measurements and generalised measurements, and the effects of dimensionality will be discussed.
Seminar#2 (10:00-10:45): (d,p) reactions based on Faddeev-Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas formalism
Speaker: Dr. Tran Viet Nhan Hao, Hue University, Hue, Viet Nam / [slides]
In nuclear reactions, Faddeev-Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas (FAGS) equations are well known the only existing formalism which can describe simultaneously and exactly the elastic, inelastic, and rearrangement process. However, the most performance FAGS code is still limited at the medium targets due to the long-range character of Coulomb interaction. In this talk, we discuss our efforts to overcome this barrier. Also, we make a review of recent progress in developing the microscopic optical potential which is a crucial ingredient for the (d,p) codes.
