Research:Indubala Satija


Indu Satija is a theoretical physicist working in the interdisciplinary fields of condensed matter physics and nonlinear dynamics. The main focus of her research is the study of phase transitions in quantum systems. This includes the Anderson transition induced by disorder, the Mott transition driven by interactions between particles, and magnetic phase transitions in quantum spin systems. A related topic is the localization transition in quantum systems exhibiting chaotic behavior at the classical limit. Topics of immediate interest include phase transitions in the presence of non-Abelian fields, the Berry phase, Bose Josephson Junctions, and higher order correlations to describe quantum phase transitions and quantum entanglement. Most of her research is strongly tied to experimental work in ultracold atoms in optical lattices at NIST and provides unique opportunities for both graduate and undergraduate research to explore frontiers of quantum systems.
