Peter Engels
Professor Peter Engels is a physicist at Washington State University who conducts research in the field of ultracold atomic gases. His group at WSU performs a variety of experiments involving quantum hydrodynamics, spin-orbit coupling, soliton formation, condensed matter physics, and more using Rb-87 and K-40. Recently, in collaboration with the theorists Prof. Michael Forbes, Yongping Zhang, and Thomas Busch, his team published research demonstrating negative mass hydrodynamics in a spin-orbit coupled Bose-Einstein condensate.
