Title: Active and Passive Control of Individual Atoms with Optical Cavities Abstract: Arrays of individually trapped atoms are a promising platform for quantum information processing. Recent progress in this field includes increasing array sizes to thousands of atoms, demonstrating logical quantum operations, and achieving two-qubit gate fidelity exceeding 99.5%. Despite these advances, utility-level atomic quantum […] |

Title: Quantum-amplified global-phase spectroscopy on an optical clock transitionAbstract: Optical lattice clocks (OLCs) are at the forefront of precision metrology, operating near a standard quantum limit (SQL) set by quantum noise. Harnessing quantum entanglement offers a promising route to surpass this limit, yet there remain practical roadblocks concerning scalability and measurement resolution requirements. In this […]

Title: Quantum Spintronics Abstract: Recent advancements in spintronic techniques originally developed for spin-based devices now enable us to study fundamental spin physics of various quantum materials with unprecedented spin-current control and measurement, opening a new area of theoretical and experimental investigation of quantum systems. In this talk, we will introduce this emerging research area of […] The JHU/STScI CAS Wine and Cheese Seminars take place in Bloomberg 462 every Monday at 3:30 pm Eastern. Each week, there will be either one speaker, giving an hour-long presentation (50+10), or two speakers, each giving a half hour (25+5) presentation. Hour-long speakers will be invited by the committee, and the half-hour speakers will comprise […] |

Nonlinear dynamics of compact object mergers beyond General Relativity Gravitational wave observations of compact objects have provided new opportunities to test our understanding of gravity in the strong-field, highly dynamical regime. To perform model-dependent tests of General Relativity with these observations, as well as to guide theory-agnostic tests, it is crucial to develop accurate inspiral-merger-ringdown […] |

Meissner-levitated ferromagnets: a novel platform for fundamental physics Andrea Vinante CNR - Istituto di Fotonica e Nanotecnologie, Trento, Italy Levitated mechanical systems in vacuum provide an ideal platform for precision measurements in fundamental and quantum physics. While optical trapping of nanoparticles is well established and has recently enabled ground-state cooling, magnetic levitation represents a promising […] |

The Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope (ALPHA) experiment Abstract: In the last decade, dark matter experiments have targeted a particularly interesting and promising candidate class, the axion. Resonant cavity searches have been breaking into the axion parameter space by searching for a resonant signal that scales with a strong magnetic field. The Axion Longitudinal Plasma HAloscope (ALPHA) […] The JHU/STScI CAS Wine and Cheese Seminars take place in Bloomberg 462 every Monday at 3:30 pm Eastern.

Title: Learning by training: what can tunable particle packings teach us about memory, learning, and adaptation? Abstract: Many living and artificial systems improve their fitness or performance by adapting to changing environments or diverse training data. However, it remains unclear how environmental variation shapes adaptation, what is learned, and when memory of past conditions is […] |

Open quantum systems for observers Techniques for modeling quantum systems that interact with an environment, or open quantum systems, are increasingly used for problems in cosmology and gravity. I will discuss how the open quantum systems approach not only allows us to revisit old problems using new tools but also enables a significant change of […] |

Title: Physics approach to creativity in generative AI Abstract: Generative AI is impacting our lives: chatbots such as chatGPT generate texts with some significant level of reasoning. Likewise, diffusion models (inspired by out-of-equilibrium statistical physics, as I will recall) compose new images from a finite training set of example, as illustrated below. These successes appear magical, and indeed leading linguists had […] |

Time’s Arrow in Living Matter Abstract: Living systems are active matter: assemblies of molecules and cells that continuously consume energy to generate motion, forces, and information flow. This persistent dissipation breaks time-reversal symmetry, giving rise to a physical arrow of time that organizes matter far from equilibrium. In this talk, I will show how time’s […] |
