The Racah Institute of Physics aspects related to high-Tc superconductivity. On the experimental side, benefiting from the facilities of the Harvey M. Krueger center for nanoscience and nanotechnology, researchers apply modern measuring and fabrication techniques to study the physics of nano-structures, their application to quantum information processing, the interaction of light and matter, high-Tc superconductivity, and the physics of electron glasses. More specifically, and summarizing but a few of the research directions, researchers study excitonic fluids in semiconductor nanostructures with an eye on both a better physical understanding of their macroscopic quantum coherence properties and possible future applications in electro-optic devices. Josephson junctions are being
Interaction point whole region around the interaction point (the experimental hall) is called an interaction region. Particle colliders such as LEP, HERA, RHIC, Tevatron and LHC can host several interaction regions and therefore several experiments taking advantage of the same beam. Interaction point In particle physics, an interaction point (IP) is the place where particles collide in an accelerator experiment. The "nominal" interaction point is the design position, which may differ from the "real" or "physics" interaction point, where the particles actually collide. A related, but distinct, concept is the "primary vertex": the reconstructed location of an individual particle collision. For fixed
