Welcome

Hi there!
I am a mathematical physicist based at the University of Nottingham (UK). My main research focus is quantum information theory and its applications.

As a late new year resolution for 2019, I am launching the #PoetRL challenge!
I pledge to write a small poem for each paper I publish in Physical Review Letters.

(Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with PRL or with the American Physical Society!)

Hopefully this will make the papers more accessible to a broader community, and overall it could give rise to an interesting crossover experiment between physical sciences and literary arts.

Calling all my colleagues here: If you find this idea cool and you wish to contribute, please write your own #PoetRL and send it over via the contact page. It could then be published on this website.

It's a catastrophe!

Anderson perturbed his Fermi Sea, To his surprise, he found orthogonality,       He proclaimed: "A catastrophe indeed",       But now we must concede, That it's just due to energy-time uncertainty!

Spectacular connection
