High Energy Theory Seminar: "The Callan Rubakov Effect"

T. Daniel Brennan (University of California San Diego)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3C6

The Callan Rubakov Effect describes the interaction between (massless) fermions and a smooth monopole in 4d gauge theory. In this scenario, the fermions can probe the UV physics inside the monopole core which leads…



High Energy Theory Seminar: The Power of Lorentzian Wormholes

Jorritt Kruthoff (IAS)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3C6

As shown by Louko and Sorkin in 1995, topology change in Lorentzian signature involves spacetimes with singular points, which they called crotches. We modify their construction to obtain Lorentzian semiclassical…



Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: The mystery of cold noise in ATLAS upgrade silicon strip modules

Ian Dyckes (LBNL)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 2C8

In preparation for the High Luminosity LHC, the ATLAS Experiment is constructing a new Inner Tracker (ITk) composed of silicon pixel and silicon strip detectors.  After multiple years of prototyping, the ITk strips…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Probing dark matter with cosmic voids

Elena Pinetti (Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3C6

In this talk, I will explain why cosmic voids are an interesting new target for dark matter searches. I will show that the expected signal-to-noise ratio resulting from decaying dark matter is significantly more…
