Some Photos

 

Ben Torralva is not at his best in this picture, because of a recent football injury, but the demonstration of coherent control (of the vibrations of a buckyball via a laser pulse) is beautiful.

 

Traian Dumitrica (below) shows his evidence that the transformation of GaAs following a fast intense laser pulse is a true phase transition.

 

Below, Antonio Mondragon shows his calculations for the evolution of the cosmic scale factor in several cosmological models.

 

Andrea Burzo, below, undertakes a calculation of the response of InSb to a laser pulse, with some help from a friend.

Below: Ben again, this time with the breathing mode for a buckyball.

Below: Antonio again, in a thinking mode.

Below: Traian again, working hard.

Below: Ben again, also in the work mode.
