Goodbye to Tom Bland

by

We said goodbye to Postdoc Thomas Bland in December 2024! Dr. Bland joined the Ferlaino Group in December 2020 as one of the first members of the theory team. Tom was at the forefront of demystifying two-dimensional supersolidity, and we thank him for leading the theory team for four glorious years! Tom has now moved back to the UK and will soon start a new position as a senior researcher in the group of Stephanie M. Reimann at Lund University. Best of luck at your new position, Tom!

 

Goodbye to Silvia

by

We bade farewell to the Theory group‘s visiting PhD student Silvia Trabucco on the 21st of October, 2024! Silvia joined us in the first week of September from Gran Sasso Science Institute in L’Aquila, Italy, to work with our PhD student, Elena Poli, on an already successful collaboration regarding vortices in a dipolar supersolid and their connection to glitches in neutron stars.

It was a pleasure to have you join us, Silvia, and we wish you the best with the rest of your PhD back in Gran Sasso!
