Title: Gravitational Wave Symphony from Oscillating Spectator Scalar Fields Abstract: Spectator scalar fields can be generically present in the early Universe, and are potentially dark matter candidates. We investigate the prospect of such scalars as a generic source of stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) due to parametric resonance during their oscillation phase. By systematically analyzing […]

High Energy Physics Theory Seminar: Yiming Chen Bloomberg 447 May 31, 2024 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM
We meet every Tuesday at 1pm, Eastern time, in the CafeCon (the conference room next to the STScI cafeteria), and also remotely using BlueJeans. We start with a talk by guest speaker for ~30 minutes, followed by paper discussion. Vote for what papers you want discussed on Benty-Fields. Sign up for e-mails by sending a […]

"Programmable Emulsions By Design" Presented by Jasna Brujic, a leading soft condensed matter experimentalist from NYU
Host: Yi Li Critical Filaments and Fractal-Mediated Superconductivity in Quasiperiodic Twisted Bilayer Graphene The electronic properties of quantum materials depend on the symmetry, topology, and spatial structure of electron wave functions. It was previously shown that superconductivity can be boosted by spatially rarified wave functions shaped by random or structured inhomogeneity. Recently, the twisting of […]
