Group Members
Eytan Grosfeld
Principal investigator
Eytan Received his PhD from the Weizmann Institute, 2008. He then moved to Urbana-Champaign as a post-doctoral fellow in the ICMT. He joined BGU in 2011.
Idan Wallerstein
PhD student
Idan studies the nucleation of topological states of matter in interacting systems using field theoretical techniques and numerical simulations.
Shimon Arie Haver
PhD Student
Shimon’s research interests focus on the properties of topological states of matter interacting with photons, and the interplay of disorder and interactions in such systems.
Emuna Rimon
MSc student
Emuna, a joint M.Sc. student with Dr. Yevgeny Bar Lev has joined the group in 2021. She is studying the interplay of disorder and interactions in graphene flakes subject to an external magnetic field. She has received her B.A. from the Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 2021.
Tali Shnaider
MSc student
Tali is studying the interplay of many-body physics and topology in superconducting circuits.
Lior Shai
MSc student
Alumni
Koby Yavilberg
Data Scientist / Algorithm Developer, Kasko2go
Former PhD student (graduated 2020) and post-doctoral fellow (2020-2021). His research interests focus on topological qubits and the interplay between Majorana and Andreev states in Josephson junctions.
Amrita Ghosh
Post-doctoral fellow at National Center for Theoretical Sciences, Taiwan
Former post-doctoral fellow (2018-2021). Studies interacting topological states of matter using quantum Monte-Carlo techniques.
Daniel Ariad
Post-doctoral fellow at John Hopkins
Former PhD student (graduated 2018). Studied the properties of quantum vortices in topological superconductors.
Daniel Dahan
Head of simulations, quantum technology startup
One of Eytan’s former PhD students (graduated 2021). Daniel studies the properties of quantum systems using open system and density-matrix renormalization group methods, applied towards quench dynamics and quantum chaos.
