Condensed Matter seminar: "Managing Energy Far From Equilibrium"
Carlos Ortiz, University of Pennsylvania
Meaningful advances in energy generation, utilization, or storage require exquisite control and optimization of the transport properties of materials far-from-thermal-equilibrium. Whether concerned with ion-…
Department Colloquium: "Spotting the Elusive Majorana Under the Microscope"
Ali Yazdani (Princeton University) Hosted by Eleni Katifori
Topological superconductors are a distinct form of matter that is predicted to host boundary Majorana fermions. The search for Majorana quasi-particles in condensed matter systems is motivated in part by their…
Dissertation Defense: "Theoretical Studies of Cosmic Acceleration"
James Stokes (UPenn)
High Energy Theory: New Frontiers in Particle Cosmology Pt.2
The purpose of this meeting is to bring together experts working at the interface of cosmology, string theory and particle physics for a few days of informal talks and exchanges of ideas. The schedule will allow…
ABO Seminars: "Noncontact Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy and Tomography of Deep Tissue Hemodynamics for Tumor Diagnosis and Treatment Monitoring"
Guoqiang Yu (University of Kentucky)
Near-infrared diffuse correlation spectroscopy or tomography (DCS/DCT) is a relatively new techniques for measuring/imaging microvascular hemodynamics in a variety of deep/thick tissues. Most DCS/DCT measurements use…
High Energy Theory: New Frontiers in Particle Cosmology Pt.1
The purpose of this meeting is to bring together experts working at the interface of cosmology, string theory and particle physics for a few days of informal talks and exchanges of ideas. The schedule will allow…
Department Colloquium *Special*: "Solving the Solar Neutrino Problem"
Joshua Klein (UPenn) Hosted by Gene Beier
We will discuss the work of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, and the Penngroup in particular, that provided the solution to the long-standing Solar Neutrino Problem and which has been recognized this year by the…
Astro Seminar: "The Scale-Dependence of Halo Assembly Bias"
Tomomi Sunayama (Yale University)
The clustering of dark matter halos is influenced by halo
properties besides mass, a phenomenon referred to as halo assembly
bias. It is because halos of the same mass in different environments
have…
