Demystifying Quantum Materials with Monika Azmanska

In this episode of the Hyperthesis, we welcome Monika Azmanska, a PhD student at McMaster University working with Dr. Pat Clancy. Monika's research focuses on experimental condensed matter physics, where she examines the electronic and magnetic properties of quantum materials using neutron and x-ray scattering. We discuss what a quantum material is and delve into photonics and hydrogen storage. We start the episode discussing a new experiment that measured the size of a neutrino, and end it with a story about the father of quantum mechanics, Werner Heisenberg.
