TITLE: Learning to navigate complex environments ABSTRACT: Living systems face the challenging task of navigating complex natural environments. Notable examples include long-distance orientation using airborne olfactory cues transported by turbulent […]
Title: The Power of Non-invertible Symmetry, Abstract: I will discuss recent advances in a novel class of symmetries in quantum field theories and quantum lattice models, known as non-invertible symmetries. Unlike conventional […]
TITLE: Spin: stem-cell for emergence in quantum materials. ABSTRACT: 2025 is the centenary of quantum mechanics making this a good time to reflect on the past as a springboard for the […]
Exoplanet Atmospheres Revealed: Insights from JWST ObservationsNestor Espinoza (STScI)
His work has spanned several areas of AMO physics, including trapped ions, Rydberg atoms, ultracold polyatomic molecules, quantum information, and precision searches for new physics with AMO systems.
Title: From quantum information to black holes and cosmology, Abstract: Black holes have not just become laboratories for astronomers, but also present some of the deepest unsolved problems in theoretical physics. […]
Exoplanet Atmospheres in the Next Decade Mercedes López -Morales (STScI)
TITLE: A Physicist Following Faraday's Hint in the Search for Quantum Gravity, ABSTRACT: Faraday's discovery of electromagnetic induction occurred due to his inference that magnetic fields about wires must be as […]
TITLE: to be announced soon, ABSTRACT: to be announced soon
Title: Cauchy-characteristic matching, Abstract: Cauchy-characteristic matching is a novel numerical-relativity technique that enables the evolution of Einstein’s equations on an effectively infinite computational domain. In this talk, I will present our […]
