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
Speaker: Dr. Oleksandr Serha University of Kaiserslautern Kaiserslautern, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany Abstract: With the fast growth in the volume of information being processed, researchers are charged with the task of finding new ways for fast and energy efficient computing. An extraordinary challenge is the use of macroscopic quantum phenomena such as magnon Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) for the
Presented by Prof. Dmitri Basov Columbia University New York, NY, USA Abstract In 1944 Hans Bethe reported on “the diffraction of electromagnetic radiation by a hole small compared with the wave-length” . This seminal paper was among the early precursors to a new and vibrant area of research: near field nano-optics. I will discuss recent
Presenter: Prof. Igor V. Bondarev North Carolina Central University Durham, NC, USA Abstract: I will present a universal method for binding energy evaluation of the lowest energy neutral and charged exciton complexes (biexciton, trion) in spatially confined semiconductor nanostructures . The method, originally pioneered by Landau, Gor'kov, Pitaevski, Holstein, and Herring in their studies of
The Physics Department and Center for Theoretical Physics will host a seminar Thursday, October 25 at 12:00 pm in Namm Room 823. Faculty and students are welcome. Title: Odd surface waves in two-dimensional incompressible fluids Dr. Sriram Ganeshan City College of CUNY New York, NY, USA Abstract: In everyday fluids, the viscosity is the measure
Presented by: Dr. Dorri Halbertal Columbia University My talk will present results of two studies of heat dissipation related processes in graphene devices, involving unconventional local probe techniques. The first part of my talk will focus on my work at the Weizmann Institute involving the developed of a scanning nanoSQUID with sub 50 nm diameter

Optical force on a polarizable dipole is usually divided into a conservative force, described as a gradient of the effective potential energy proportional to the intensity of electromagnetic field, and a non-conservative scattering or radiative pressure force. In this talk i will show that combination of the confinement of light in highly symmetrical optical cavity
