PGI Virtual Seminar Series | Fani Dosopoulou, "The Merger History of Elliptical Galaxies: Mass Deficit"

PGI Virtual Seminar Series | Fani Dosopoulou, "The Merger History of Elliptical Galaxies: Mass Deficit"
Mon, Nov 23, 2020, 12:30 pm

Abstract: The structure and kinematics of galactic nuclei are fossil relics of the merger histories of galaxies and of the interaction between stars and SMBH binaries. Stars ejection during the SMBH binary evolution should reduce a galaxy’s central density and expand its core.

Mon, Nov 23, 2020, 12:15 pm

Many mature bacterial colonies and biofilms are complex three-dimensional (3D) structures. A key step in their developmental program is a transition from a two-dimensional (2D) monolayer into a 3D architecture.

Audience: A free lecture open to the public.

Fri, Nov 20, 2020, 12:00 pm

Every analysis of cosmic microwave background observations faces the challenge of compressing large amounts of data into the comparatively tiny spaces of power spectra and cosmological parameters.

Hamilton Colloquium Series, Cumrun Vafa, Harvard University, "The String Landscape and the Swampland"

Hamilton Colloquium Series, Cumrun Vafa, Harvard University, "The String Landscape and the Swampland"
Thu, Nov 19, 2020, 12:15 pm

String theory landscape of vacua point to new consistency conditions that a quantum gravitational system must satisfy.  There are only a small number of quantum field theories that satisfy these conditions and all the rest belong to the `Swampland' which cannot be consistently coupled to gravity.  In this talk I review some of these conditions...

Condensed Matter Zoom Seminar | Titus Neupert,UZH | "Heating and blackhole dynamics in critical Floquet systems"

Condensed Matter Zoom Seminar | Titus Neupert,UZH | "Heating and blackhole dynamics in critical Floquet systems"
Wed, Nov 18, 2020, 1:00 pm

While driven interacting quantum matter is generically subject to heating and scrambling, certain classes of systems evade this paradigm. I will discuss such an exceptional class in periodically driven critical (1 + 1)-dimensional systems with a spatially modulated, but disorder-free time evolution operator.

PGI Virtual Seminar Series | Eliot Hijano Cubelos, "Where are BMS symmetries in the flat limit of AdS/CFT?"

PGI Virtual Seminar Series | Eliot Hijano Cubelos, "Where are BMS symmetries in the flat limit of AdS/CFT?"
Mon, Nov 16, 2020, 12:30 pm

Abstract: A holographic description of physics in Minkowski space is still elusive. A tempting approach is to implement a flat limit from AdS/CFT. Such a limit has not properly been understood, even at the level of the symmetries of the theory; How do BMS symmetries emerge from the flat limit of the asymptotic symmetries of anti-de Sitter space...

Biophysics Seminar: Seppe Kuehn, University of Chicago| A sparse mapping from structure to function in microbial communities|Zoom

Biophysics Seminar: Seppe Kuehn, University of Chicago| A sparse mapping from structure to function in microbial communities|Zoom
Mon, Nov 16, 2020, 12:15 pm

The metabolic function of microbial communities emerges through a complex hierarchy of genome-encoded processes, from gene expression to interactions between diverse taxa. Therefore, a central challenge for microbial ecology is deciphering how genomic structure determines metabolic function in communities.

Hamilton Colloquium Series, Monika Schleier-Smith, Stanford University, "Choreographing Quantum Spin Dynamics with Light"
Thu, Nov 5, 2020, 12:00 pm

The power of quantum information lies in its capacity to be non-local, encoded in correlations among two, three, or many entangled particles.  Yet our ability to produce, understand, and exploit such correlations is hampered by the fact that the interactions between particles and ordinarily local.
