Condensed Matter seminar: "Correlated Light-Matter Interactions and Excited-State Dynamics in Quantum Materials"
Prineha Narang, Harvard University
The physics of quantum materials is rich with spectacular excited-state and non-equilibrium effects, but many of these phenomena remain poorly understood and consequently technologically unexplored.
Astronomy seminar: "Accretion in the Shadow of M87"
Joey Neilsen (Villanova University)
With the Event Horizon Telescope’s groundbreaking detection of the shadow of the supermassive black hole in M87, we have entered a new era of black hole astrophysics. After presenting the first results from the EHT,…
High Energy Theory seminar: "Boundary conditions, zero modes, and spacetime entropy"
James Sully, University of British Columbia
How do we describe the local Hilbert space of a continuum field theory? And does this have lessons to teach us about the emergence of spacetime in AdS/CFT? I will describe how to define the Hilbert space of an…
ADVANCES IN BIOMEDICAL OPTICS 2019 SEMINAR SERIES: “Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy to Elucidate Mechanisms of Brain Injury"
Erin Buckley, Emory University
Pizza will be served at 11:45 am
*These seminars are supported by the Biomedical Imaging and Spectroscopy Laboratory, the Center for Magnetic Resonance and Optical Imaging, the Department of Radiology…
Condensed Matter seminar: "Control of light-matter interaction in 2D materials"
Vinod Menon, The City College of New York
Two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals materials have emerged as a very attractive class of optoelectronic material due to the unprecedented strength in its interaction with light. In this talk I will discuss approaches…
Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: "Latest results from KOTO"
Brian Beckford, University of Michigan
Astronomy seminar: "Integrated approach to cosmology"
Andrina Nicola (Princeton/ETH)
Recent progress in observational cosmology and the establishment of ΛCDM have relied on the combination of different cosmological probes. These probes are not independent, since they all measure the same physical…
