Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Duric
Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Duric
Speaker: Senka Duric Title: Electroweak and Higgs physics at the LHC: The present and the future Abstract: Contrary to all expectations, experiments at the LHC did not discover any fundamentally new particles other than the Higgs boson. However, a lot can be learned from precision measurements of Higgs boson properties and the production of vector

Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Fleischauer
Speaker: Michael Fleischhauer (Univ. of Kaiserslautern) Title: Non-local nonlinear optics using Rydberg atoms Abstract: Photons do not easily interact with each other and nonlinear processes
on the few-photon level can usually be realized only under very special
conditions. Coupling of weak light fields to atoms involving Rydberg states
may change this picture. Under conditions of electromagnetically induced
transparency (EIT)

Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Rorie
Speaker: Jamal Rorie (Rice) Title: Dark Matter, CMS, and the Search for Physics Beyond the Standard Model Abstract: There is compelling observational evidence for the existence of dark matter, but it is not currently included in the Standard Model of elementary particle and their interactions. The recently observed Higgs boson may interact with dark matter

Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Lee
Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Lee
Speaker: Duane Lee (MIT) Title: Abstract: A key focus of galactic astronomy is to determine and understand the formation and evolution of all nearby galaxies (including our own Milky Way)—those galaxies where we can obtain information on their individual stars. The best source of data on individual stars in galaxies is their spectra as they

Physics & Astronomy Colloquium – Spring 2019 – Pinfold
Speaker: Pinfold Title: Dirac's Dream - The Quest for the Magnetic Monopole Abstract: The elusive magnetic monopole is arguably the most important particle that has yet to be discovered. We shall follow the search for the monopole from its Victorian beginnings until today and discuss how we can continue into the future. We shall see
