SUMMARY:Many-body physics with strongly correlated photons on a lattice
DESCRIPTION:Recent experimental advances in cavity/circuit QED have opened up the possibility to realise novel many-body and non-equilibrium phenomena with strongly correlated photons in coupled qubit-cavity arrays (QCA). 
In a QCA, qubits and cavities are arranged on a lattice, such that photons can hop between cavities and locally interact with a qubit leading to the realisation of effective photon-photon interactions. These extended, interacting photonic systems have potential applications in quantum information science but may also be promising quantum simulators for open systems.
This talk will give an overview over recent theoretical as well as experimental developments in this emerging field at the interface of AMO,  Mesoscopic physics and Electrical Engineering.
