TITLE: The Many Frontiers of High Magnetic Field Research, ABSTRACT: The National MagLab in the United States exists to provide magnetic fields that are more than a million times stronger than the Earth’s magnetic field to thousands of visiting researchers every year. Why would anyone want to do such a thing? It turns out that magnetic […]
TITLE: Decoding Astrophysics from inspiraling LISA Massive Black Hole Binaries ABSTRACT: Our current understanding is that an environment – mainly consisting of gas, stars, or a third massive black hole (MBH) – is required to bring MBH binaries (MBHBs) with total mass ∼ MSun to near-merger from parsec separation. The final inspiral is driven by […]

TITLE: CMB limits on decaying dark matter: going beyond the ionization threshold ABSTRACT: The temperature and polarization anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) have been used to set constraints on decaying dark matter models down to keV masses. In this talk, I will discuss recent work to extend these limits down into the sub-keV […]

Title: Cosmic Acceleration in the Roman Era JHU/STScI Joint Colloquium: David Weinberg (Ohio State)
We have two speakers: Margarita Gordiychuk (on the topic "Searching for Sequence Features that Control DNA Cyclizability") and Vladimir Grigorev (with the title "Conformational entropy of intrinsically disordered proteins excludes intruders from biocondensates")
TITLE: Mechanics of Domain Walls ABSTRACT: Domain walls, narrow regions separating domains of uniform magnetization, have a long history in the field of magnetism. As topological solitons, they present interest from the perspective of basic science and technological applications such as magnetic memory. Domain walls can be driven at speeds up to several kilometers per […]

Title: Binary black hole waveforms in the small mass ratio limit Abstract: Current gravitational-wave detectors are being upgraded, and plans are developing for future detectors with greater sensitivity over broader frequency bands. As instruments improve and develop, more cycles of sources’ gravitational waveforms will be measured with greater signal to noise ratio. Such higher fidelity […]
TITLE: Quantum Many-Body Topology in Mixed States ABSTRACT: The classification of gapped quantum phases in pure states has seen significant progress over the past decades, particularly with the identification of symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases. While much has been understood about these phases in ideal, isolated systems at zero temperature, their behavior under non-ideal conditions—such as […]
