DESCRIPTION:Prof. Dam T. Son\, University of Chicago\nIn fractional quantu
 m Hall states\, electrons self-organize into a strongly interacting fluid 
 with nontrivial emergent properties. It has recently been understood that 
 fractional quantum Hall fluids accommodate one or several spin-2 excitatio
 ns\, which have been argued to be condensed-matter analogues of the gravi
 ton. In this talk we will review the origin of the idea of the graviton 
 and the basic physics of the fractional quantum Hall effect. We then discu
 ss a recent experiment claiming observation of a graviton-like mode in fr
 actional quantum Hall effect and its broader implications.\n
