Speaker: Miguel C. N. Fiolhais, BMCC CUNY Abstract: The recent discovery of a new scalar particle, compatible with the SM Higgs boson, by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN brought us the most important missing piece of the Standard Model. With the LHC operating at a center-of-mass energy of
Presented by Prof. David Reichman of Columbia University Abstract: Advances in light sources and time-resolved spectroscopy have made it possible to excite specific atomic vibrations in solids and to observe the resulting changes in electronic properties, but the mechanism by which phonon excitation causes qualitative changes in electronic properties has remained unclear. Here we show
Guest Speaker: Simone Dall’Osso of SUNY Stony Brook The first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW) from a binary black hole made by Advanced LIGO has opened the era of GW astronomy. Sources for the current detectors are catastrophic events involving neutron stars (NS) and black holes (BH), isolated or in binaries, in which huge
