SUMMARY:39th Dean S. Edmonds\, Sr. Distinguished Lecture 2019: Topological 
	Quantum Matter\, Entanglement\, and the Second Quantum Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Featuring F. Duncan M. Haldane\, Princeton University\nHosted b
	y: Lawrence Sulak\nPoster: http://physics.bu.edu/internal//files/download/H
	aldane-poster.pdf\n\nPart of the Physics Department Colloquia Series.\n\nWh
	ile the laws of quantum mechanics have remained unchanged and have passed a
	ll tests for the last eighty-five years\, new discoveries about the exotic 
	states that they allow\, "entanglement"\, and ideas from quantum informatio
	n theory\, have greatly changed our perspective\, and some believe that a "
	second quantum revolution" is currently underway. The discovery of unexpect
	ed "topological states of matter"\, and their possible use for "topological
	ly-protected quantum information processing" is one of the important themes
	 of these developments\, and will be described.\n\n*Please note location is
	 PHO 206 and date is a Monday.*
