Yanming Ma Jilin University
Title: High pressure superconductors with the emergent exciting physics (tentative)
Speaker Introduction
Prof. Yanming Ma (http://mym.calypso.cn) is a distinguished Au-Chin Tang Professor in College of Physics, and vice President of Jilin University where he received his Ph.D in 2001. He was elected academician in physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2023. Ma’s research interests are in the development of simulation methods (e.g., CALYPSO at http://www.calypso.cn) for crystal structure prediction and large-scale electronic structure calculations of materials, and the use of these methods to investigate high pressure materials (e.g., hydrogen-based superconductors, etc). He recently established an experimental lab for syntheses and property characterization of materials at high pressure conditions. He received the Jamieson Award for High Pressure Science and Technology (2001) and the very first Walter Kohn Prize for Quantum-mechanical Materials and Molecular Modeling (2016).
