Mysteries of the Higgs Boson, ABSTRACT: Thirty-five years after it was postulated as a key component of the theory of weak interactions, the Higgs boson was discovered at the CERN Large Hadron Collider in 2012. Since that time, the major couplings of the Higgs boson have been measured at the LHC, with results in good […]
Black (hole) Coffee is a space for students, postdocs, and professors to discuss cutting-edge research on all things black holes, spanning both observations and theory.
After a hiatus of several years, the William H. Miller III Department of Physics & Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University is excited to announce the revival of the Physics Fair! Join us on Saturday, April 26 from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. for a day of fun, interactive exhibits and activities that explore the fascinating […]
Title: Tracing light: on Linear and Nonlinear Terahertz Polaritonics in Quantum Paraelectrics, Abstract: The advancement of high-speed data processing and signal manipulation technologies has pushed the frontier into the terahertz (THz) frequency range, raising a fundamental challenge: how to efficiently control electromagnetic fields at these frequencies. This issue, often referred to as the "THz gap" in optical and […]

Title: Topological defects in liquid crystals, Abstract: I will present an introduction to the theory of topological defects in materials, giving an intuitive overview of homotopy theory and exploring how it is used to understand physically (and often visually!) observable quasiparticles. I will focus primarily on nematic liquid crystals, while highlighting analogous phenomena in other […]
