ABO Seminars: "Noncontact Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy and Tomography of Deep Tissue Hemodynamics for Tumor Diagnosis and Treatment Monitoring"

Guoqiang Yu (University of Kentucky)
- Donner Building 3400 Spruce Street
Donner Auditorium, Basement
*Pizza served at 11:45am*

Near-infrared diffuse correlation spectroscopy or tomography (DCS/DCT) is a relatively new techniques for measuring/imaging microvascular hemodynamics in a variety of deep/thick tissues. Most DCS/DCT measurements use…



High Energy Theory: New Frontiers in Particle Cosmology Pt.1

- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4N12

The purpose of this meeting is to bring together experts working at the interface of cosmology, string theory and particle physics for a few days of informal talks and exchanges of ideas. The schedule will allow…



Department Colloquium *Special*: "Solving the Solar Neutrino Problem"

Joshua Klein (UPenn) Hosted by Gene Beier
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, A8

We will discuss the work of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, and the Penngroup in particular, that provided the solution to the long-standing Solar Neutrino Problem and which has been recognized this year by the…



Astro Seminar: "The Scale-Dependence of Halo Assembly Bias"

Tomomi Sunayama (Yale University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratoy, A6

The clustering of dark matter halos is influenced by halo
properties besides mass, a phenomenon referred to as halo assembly
bias. It is because halos of the same mass in different environments
have…

Rittenhouse Lecture:" Expansion of the Universe seen by Hubble"

Adam Reiss (JHU/STScI) Hosted by Adam Lidz
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, A8

The Hubble constant remains one of the most important parameters in the cosmological model, setting the size and age scales of the Universe.  Present uncertainties in the cosmological model including the nature of…

Condensed Matter seminar: "Microfluidics of sugar transport in plants"

Kaare H. Jensen, Technical University of Denmark
- Chemistry Building, Room 102

Plants can rightly be called masters of microengineering. Their survival and successful reproduction depends on their ability to overcome a series of physical challenges during growth and when transporting matter…
