Abstract The non-equilibrium dynamics of quantum many-body systems exhibit a rich and complex phenomenology, as evidenced by recent advances in areas like eigenstate thermalization, quantum scars, generalized hydrodynamics, and quantum chaos. Among strongly correlated quantum models, integrable systems play a crucial role in providing a solid theoretical foundation for these concepts. These models are distinguished by an infinite number of conserved charges and stable quasi-particle excitations. When integrability is weakly broken, interactions between quasi-particles emerge, leading to the development of a novel kinetic theory. In this talk, I will review recent progress in this kinetic framework, which offers many insights into non-equilibrium phenomena of strongly interacting systems, including the emergence of the Navier-Stokes equations from quantum dynamics. We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 2.63 (2nd floor).

In this talk, we will explore how finite element simulations can be used to provide insights into the extent which inhomogeneities affect the accuracy of standard electrical measurements of 2D materials. We will also discuss how unexpected behaviour from non-uniformity in layer number can be reproduced with these simulations, and how finite element simulations can be used to distinguish between ballistic and diffusive transport in high-quality graphene devices. We warmly welcome everyone to attend the talk and the Soft Matter Coffee Break after the seminar, held in room 2.63 (2nd floor).
