Description
I was a graduate student in Jules Carbotte's group in the early 1990s, during the heyday of high temperature superconductivity. At the time (for me), everything was new and everything was exciting and it felt as if we were about to learn something beautiful about the world. I recognize now how many of those feelings are tied to where I was and who I was working for. Indeed, I have much to thank Jules for: for helping to create a community of people working together on a common problem; for his infinite patience as a supervisor; and for the joy that physics gave him, which he shared freely with his students. In this talk, I will pay tribute to my former supervisor and mentor.
