Upcoming HET and HEE Seminars



Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Accelerating the search for Sub-GeV Dark Matter

Christina Mantilla Suarez (UVA)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Accelerator-based experiments provide a unique opportunity to expand the search for dark sector and rare processes in the MeV to GeV mass range, just below the proton mass. This largely unexplored regime is…



High Energy Theory Seminar: "TBA"

Vladimir Rosenhaus (CUNY)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2


Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: "TBA"

Jason Detwiler (University of Washington)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2


High Energy Theory Seminar: "TBA"

Daniel Harlow (MIT)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2


Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Taking the low road: extending the reach of collider experiments with low-level detector information 

Grace Cummings (FNAL)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Even in the time of streaming and industrial big-data, the experiments at the Large Hadron Collider still produce data of staggering size and rate. To combat this, low-level detector information is often…

Past HET and HEE Seminars



High Energy Theory Seminar: The Quantum Universe from Quantum Gravity

Yasunori Nomura (Berkeley)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

I will discuss issues involved in formulating a quantum theory of the universe, including nonperturbative aspects of quantum gravity. In particular, I will explore how to pose physically meaningful questions in…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Love numbers for astrophysical compact objects in theories beyond General Relativity

Kent Yagi (University of Virginia)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

One can probe nuclear physics with gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger through measurements of a tidal Love number. The latter is a linear response coefficient of the stellar quadrupole moment…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Free-falling in Quantum Spacetime

Maulik Parikh (Arizona State University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Gravity is usually regarded classically, obeying Newton's law or Einstein's equations. Here I will show that, when the gravitational field is treated quantum-mechanically, the classical trajectories of freely falling…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Universal Bounds in interface conformal field theories

Andreas Karch (UT Austin)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Critical phenomena in the presence of interfaces provide a much richer arena than their more studied cousin of boundary critical phenomena. In this talk, I'll review certain observables that are new and unique…



Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Development of high precision 4D-trackers for future experiments

Artur Apresyan (FNAL)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

I will present recent progress towards the development of 4D-trackers with high granularity in position in time. As future colliders move to higher energy collisions, with increased particle occupancy, the need…
