Event Series Department-wide Colloquium Series

Department-wide Colloquium: Roya Zandi (University of California Riverside)

Bloomberg 272 - Schafler Auditorium

Theoretical principles of viral capsid self-organization and genome packaging Single-stranded (ss) RNA viruses, which impact humans, animals, and plants, constitute the largest and most widespread genetic class of viruses. During the replication process, hundreds or even thousands of proteins assemble to form the viral shell (capsid), enclosing the genetic material. Using continuum elasticity theory, we […]

Event Series AstroCoffee Seminar Series

AstroCoffee Talk

Bloomberg 5th floor lounge

15-20 min long talks on astronomy-related papers, projects, ideas. Enjoy both Astronomy and Coffee (please bring your own mugs). If you have new results, ideas or want to discuss an interesting paper from arXiv, we encourage you to present. Spring 2024 schedule

Event Series Center for Astrophysical Sciences Wine & Cheese Seminar Series

JHU CAS Wine & Cheese Seminar: Miguel Zumalacarregui (AEI)

Bloomberg 462

Lensing of Gravitational Waves: New Opportunities for Fundamental Physics Just like light, gravitational waves (GWs) are deflected and magnified by massive objects in the Universe, a phenomenon known as gravitational lensing. In addition, their low frequency, phase coherence and lack of absorption make GWs complementary to lensed electromagnetic sources. Hence, in addition to well known […]

Event Series STScI/JHU Galaxy Journal Club Meetings

STScI/JHU Galaxy Journal Club Meeting

STScI CafeCon

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 […]

Event Series Particle Physics Theory Seminar Series

High Energy Physics Theory Seminar: Grant Remmen (NYU)

Bloomberg 462

Title: Effective Field Theory Breakdown Near Cool Black Holes Abstract: In this talk, I will demonstrate a surprising way in which near-extremal black holes are sensitive probes of new physics. For extremal Kerr black holes, higher-derivative corrections cubic and quartic in the Riemann tensor induce tidal force singularities on the horizon, leading to a breakdown […]

Event Series Experimental particle physics seminar series

Experimental HEP Seminar: Kai Yi (Nanjing Normal University)

Bloomberg 475

Title: New Structures in the J/psi J/psi Mass Spectrum at CMS Abstract: The speaker will discuss the new structures reported by the CMS collaboration recently. Three structures are found in the J/psi J/psi mass spectrum in proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV, and a model with quantum interference among these structures provides a good description of […]

Event Series Department-wide Colloquium Series

Department-wide Colloquium: Alexandra Zidovska (NYU)

Bloomberg 272 - Schafler Auditorium

Interphase Chromatin Undergoes a Local Sol-Gel Transition Upon Cell Differentiation Cell differentiation, the process by which stem cells become specialized cells, is associated with chromatin reorganization inside the cell nucleus. Here, we measure the chromatin distribution and dynamics in embryonic stem cells in vivo before and after differentiation. We find that undifferentiated chromatin is less compact, more […]

Event Series Condensed matter and biological physics seminar series

Allen Scheie – Special Condensed Matter Seminar

Bloomberg 462

Special Condensed Matter Seminar Speaker: Allen Scheie Title: "The old and the new: Probing elemental gadolinium and quantum entanglement with neutron scattering" Abstract: Doing experiments on quantum materials often not nearly as hard as interpreting those experiments. In this talk I discuss two projects where neutron scattering data was analyzed in a new way to […]
