Dr. Jeremy Young
I received my B.S. in physics and in mathematics from the University of Rochester in 2013 and my Ph.D. in physics at the University of Maryland, College Park in 2019. I joined Professor Rey's group as an NRC postdoc in 2020.
My research has focused on understanding non-equilibrium dynamics in open quantum systems and using Rydberg atoms for quantum computation and simulation. Some highlights of this research include the identification of new forms of non-equilibrium critical behavior at driven-dissipative phase transitions and the development of a new approach to engineering multi-qubit Rydberg gates by using strong microwave dressing.

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
