Abstract:

The impact of lossy multi-layer structures on nonequilibrium atom-surface interactions is discussed. Specifically, the focus lies on a fully non-Markovian and nonequilibrium description of quantum friction, the fluctuation-induced drag force acting on an atom moving at constant velocity and height above the multi-layer structures.

Brief introduction of the dida co-author(s) and relevance for dida's ML developments.

Marty Oelschläger (PhD)

During their studies in physics (HU Berlin) Marty investigated optimization and inverse problems, utilizing Python and Fortran. In their PhD thesis (Max Born institute) they focused on fluctuation-induced phenomena, where they investigated the interplay of classical and quantum statistics. During this time they gained experience in code development and design in C, C++, and Python and developed interest in machine learning. After their PhD they focused on Deep Learning and works at dida in the role as ML Scientist as well as Project Lead and Project Manager.
