 ntum Seminar with Jérôme Esteve from the Université Paris-Saclay 
 who will give the talk "Inelastic tunneling in a high impedance multimode
  microwave environment" on Thursday September 11th from 12pm to 1:30pm \
 nLocation: BC 01\n\nPizzas will be available between the seminars at 12:
 00. All PhDs\, postdocs\, students\, group leaders\, and PIs are welcome t
 o join us.\n\nTITLE: "Inelastic tunneling in a high impedance multimode m
 icrowave environment"\n\nABSTRACT:\nBosonic degrees of freedom\, such as v
 ibrational or electromagnetic modes\, can significantly influence the dc t
 ransport properties of mesoscopic conductors to which they are coupled. De
 pending on the microscopic processes involved\, the conductance may be sup
 pressed—for example\, in dynamical Coulomb blockade—or enhanced throug
 h inelastic processes associated with bosonic excitations. These mechanism
 s are well established in the perturbative\, weak-coupling regime\, where 
 the bosonic environment can be regarded as remaining close to thermal equi
 librium. By contrast\, in the strong-coupling regime\, the non-equilibrium
  dynamics of the bosonic modes must be taken into account\, and qualitativ
 ely new physics emerges. We investigate this regime in a tunnel junction c
 oupled to the dense spectrum of microwave modes in a high-inductance super
 conducting transmission line. Our results demonstrate a pronounced renorma
 lization of the conductance and uncover rich quantum-optical dynamics of t
 he microwave environment\, highlighting the interplay between strong elect
 ron–boson coupling and non-equilibrium many-body effects.\n\nBIO: \nJé
 rôme Esteve is a researcher at the Laboratoire de Physique des Solides (L
 PS) in Orsay\, France. His career has been dedicated to experimental quant
 um physics\, with contributions spanning ultracold atoms\, quantum optics\
 , and cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) during his time at the Laborato
 ire Kastler Brossel in Paris. He later joined the NS2 team at LPS\, where 
 his research focuses on microwave quantum optics in circuit QED and the st
 udy of unconventional superconductors.
