TITLE: Optics with a Twist for Material Characterization ABSTRACT: Optical wavefront shaping (WFS) involves the ability to manipulate light fields both spatially and temporally. It has largely been enabled by the availability of spatial light modulators (SLM). SLMs are used to create arbitrarily complex light fields and also provide means to manipulate the funda- mental […]

Title: The Story of the Higgs Boson and the Development of New Technologies for Future Discoveries at CERN Abstract: More than 12 years ago, the discovery of a new elementary particle by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN echoed around the world. Today, we know that the discovered particle was the Higgs boson, and […] |

Abstract: I will review the core questions in quantum field theory and gravity for the research in my group. I will also describe recent developments in the study of symmetry of quantum systems and their potential implications for gravity. We are starting a new seminar series with the working title Broad Theory Seminar. Its goal is […] |

Title: Zooming in on Nature’s secrets with EDMs in molecular ions, Abstract: The Standard Model of particle physics is one of the most successful models of the universe, yet it is known to be incomplete. Substantial efforts on the theoretical front introduce new physics through extensions of the Standard Model. Advances in quantum control of […] |

Title: Black holes in space and the "lab": from theory to practice Abstract: This talk focuses on recent theoretical developments in black holes and gravity using techniques from quantum field theory. I will begin by demonstrating how perturbative quantum field theory can be employed to compute the gravitational waveforms generated by astrophysical black holes. Next, I will […] |

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 winds, the tracking of surface-bound trails of odor cues, and flight in the lowest layers of the atmosphere. Terrestrial animals, insects, and birds have evolved […] |

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 symmetries governed by Wigner's theorem, these are implemented by conserved operators that have no inverse, challenging and extending the traditional paradigm of symmetry in physics. I […] |

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 bold research that the 21st century community of physicists can aspire to. One of the unexpected discoveries of Quantum Mechanics is Spin, a concept introduced […]

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. During the past decade surprising connections have been made between ideas from quantum information and gravitational physics. In this talk I will explain several aspects […] |

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 wheels about a spoke. This visualization led to understanding the physics of B-fields. Currently mathematically enabled research uses computers to augment this important tool. The speaker will discuss […] |
