High Energy Theory Seminar: "TBA"

Daniel Harlow (MIT)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2


Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Taking the low road: extending the reach of collider experiments with low-level detector information 

Grace Cummings (FNAL)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Even in the time of streaming and industrial big-data, the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider still produce data of staggering size and rate. To combat this, low-level detector information is often…

Past Seminars



Astrophysics Seminar: FRB science results from CHIME

Kendrick Smith (Perimeter)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a recently discovered, poorly understood class of transient event, and understanding their origin has become a central problem in astrophysics. I will present FRB science results…



Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: LEGEND: new results and future prospects in the search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in 76Ge

Jason Detwiler (University of Washington)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

The Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless Double-beta decay (LEGEND) aims to be the first to observe the creation of matter without matter in the form of neutrinoless double-beta decay, an L- and…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Renormalization Group in far-from-equilibrium states

Vladimir Rosenhaus (CUNY)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

We study renormalization group flows in far-from-equilibrium states. The study is made tractable by focusing on states that are spatially homogeneous, time-independent, and scale invariant. Such states, in…



Astrophysics Seminar: Formation and Evolution of Brightest Cluster Galaxies: Nature vs Nurture?

Yen-Ting Lin (ASIAA)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

The formation and evolution of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs), the most massive galaxies in the universe, is not a well-understood issue in astrophysics.  Are BCGs special compared to other cluster…



Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Accelerating the search for Sub-GeV Dark Matter

Christina Mantilla Suarez (UVA)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Accelerator-based experiments provide a unique opportunity to expand the search for dark sector and rare processes in the MeV to GeV mass range, just below the proton mass. This largely unexplored regime is…
