SUMMARY:Scott Lecture II : Realizing and Probing Topological Matter using 
 Ultracold Quantum Gases - Professor Immanuel Bloch\, Max Planck Institute 
 of Quantum Optics\, Garching

DESCRIPTION:Exploring and realizing topological quantum matter has become 
 one of the most intriguing fields in quantum many-body physics. In this le
 cture\, I will show how we can realize and probe topological quantum matte
 r using the novel toolbox of ultracold atomic systems\, achieving effectiv
 e artificial magnetic fields than can become 100x stronger than any labora
 tory fields. I will also discuss how dynamical versions of the Integer Qua
 ntum Hall effect can be realised through the celebrated Thouless Charge pu
 mp and discuss prospects for realizing Fractional Chern Insulators. Using 
 Quantum Gas Microscopy\, I will show how non-local hidden order parameters
  can be detected\, allowing us to reveal topological order in many-body sy
 stems at the most fundamental level for the first time.\n
