Andrey Katz-UMD- "Jet substructure and the Search for Z' in Electroweak Boson Channels"

Andrey Katz-UMD- "Jet substructure and the Search for Z' in Electroweak Boson Channels"
Thu, Dec 9, 2010, 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Abstract: "Strongly coupled models at the TeV scale often predict one or more Z' bosons which have appreciable branching ratios into EW bosons. These Z's are usually believed to have multi-TeV mass due to electroweak precision constraints, placing them on the edge of the LHC discovery reach.

Giovanni Gallavotti , Title: Nonequilibrium: Thermostats, BBGKY Hierarchy, Fourier's Equation
Wed, Dec 8, 2010, 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm
Abstract: Review of rigorous results on thermostats. Families of exact formal solutions of the BBGKY hierarchy for hard sphere systems with free boundary conditions at collisions and Fourier equation emergence, to first order in the temperature difference, after boundary conditions are imposed.

Alex Himmel-"Muon Neutrino and Antineutrino Oscillations at MINOS"

Alex Himmel-"Muon Neutrino and Antineutrino Oscillations at MINOS"
Tue, Dec 7, 2010, 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm
MINOS is a long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment with two detectors 734 km apart exposed to the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beam. By comparing the energy spectrum and beam composition at the two sites neutrino oscillations at L/E~500 km/GeV can be measured with precision.
