Event Series Department-wide Colloquium Series

Stephen Taylor (Vanderbilt) “The Road Ahead For Nanohertz-frequency Gravitational-wave Astrophysics”

Bloomberg 272 - Schafler Auditorium

Department-wide colloquium Speaker: Stephen Taylor (Vanderbilt) Title: The Road Ahead For Nanohertz-frequency Gravitational-wave Astrophysics Abstract:  The landscape of gravitational-wave astrophysics was recently broadened to encompass the nanohertz-frequency band, where NANOGrav and other pulsar-timing arrays found the tell-tale signature of a stochastic all-sky background of gravitational waves. With this evidence came spectral information that yields insights […]

AMO Seminar: Harry Levine (Amazon Web Services, Center for Quantum Computing)

Bloomberg 462

Video of the talk Title: Novel strategies for hardware-efficient quantum processors Abstract: Quantum error correction is an exciting scientific frontier at the interface of many fields including quantum information science, many-body physics, and computer science. The field has developed rapidly in the last several years, with major milestones marking the first glimpses into a future of error-corrected […]

Distinguished Lecture for the Natural Philosophy Forum: Geoffrey West of the Santa Fe Institute

Glass Pavilion

The Simplicity, Unity and Complexity of Life from the Biosphere to the Anthroposphere Although Life is probably the most complex and diverse phenomenon in the Universe, having evolved by the “random” forces of natural selection, many of its most fundamental characteristics scale with size in a remarkably simple universal fashion. From lifespans and growth rates […]

David Sing(JHU)

Bloomberg 272 - Schafler Auditorium

  “Opening The Era of Exoplanet Atmospheric Chemistry With JWST.” We are now one full year into the era of JWST, NASA’s flagship observatory and successor to the Hubble Space Telescope. Exoplanet characterization has historically been dominated by space-based facilities, and the new infrared capabilities of JWST are uncovering the atmospheres of exoplanets in an […]

AMO Seminar: Xing Fan (Northwestern University)

Bloomberg 462

Video of the talk "Search for New Physics with Electron Dipole Moments" Xing Fan, Research Assistant Professor, Northwestern University A major goal of modern particle physics is to search for phenomena that are in conflict with our best theoretical understanding of nature, the Standard Model (SM). One approach in the search occurs at the laboratory […]
