PARTY CALL PHYSICS: Likelihoods and Classifiers

Room 112 (Watanabe Hall)

Speakers: Giordan Stark (UC Santa Cruz) Communicating results between experimentalists and theorists in particle physics has been long and varied. From efficiency maps to selection cut flows - the collaboration between the two communities has continued to grow and evolve. Now, particularly more than ever, a stronger effort has been led within the ATLAS Collaboration ... Read more

Programming Interaction and Assembly with Magnetic Handshake Materials

Room 112 (Watanabe Hall)

Speakers: Chrisy Xiyu Du (UH. Mech. Eng.) Biological materials gain complexity from the programmable nature of their components. To manufacture materials with comparable complexity synthetically, we need to create building blocks with low crosstalk so that they only bind to their desired partners. Canonically, these building blocks are made using DNA strands or proteins to ... Read more

How the result of a measurement of a component of the spin of a spin-1/2 particle can turn out to be 100

Watanabe 420 2505 Correa Road, Honolulu, HI, United States

Speakers: Xerxes Tata (University of Hawaii) Biological materials gain complexity from the programmable nature of their components. To manufacture materials with comparable complexity synthetically, we need to create building blocks with low crosstalk so that they only bind to their desired partners. Canonically, these building blocks are made using DNA strands or proteins to achieve specificity. ... Read more

Particle Beams and Accelerators: Pushing the Frontiers of Science

Watanabe 112 2505 Correa Road, Honolulu, HI, United States

Speakers: Vladimir Shiltsev (NIU) Over the past three decades, the science of beams has evolved into a distinct discipline with its own subjects and methods. Some 30,000 accelerators are in operation worldwide today, including over 100 of major facilities for fundamental science research.  Around 5,000 accelerator scientists and engineers work in over 50 countries, collaborating ...

Accelerator Research: Opportunities for University Growth and Student Training

Room 420 (Watanabe Hall)

Speakers: Vladimir Shiltev I will discuss key accelerator and beam physics developments that have advanced nuclear and high-energy physics, highlighting their relevance to major future projects such as the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee, a Higgs Factory at CERN), and the Muon Collider. I will first focus on electron lenses (e-lenses) for beam-beam ... Read more

Enhanced Disruption of Axion Minihalos by Multiple Stellar Encounters in the Milky Way

Room 420 (Watanabe Hall)

Speakers: Chris Gordon (University of Canterbury) If QCD axion dark matter formed post-inflation, axion miniclusters emerged from isocurvature fluctuations and later merged hierarchically into minihalos. These minihalos, potentially disrupted by stellar encounters in the Milky Way, affect axion detectability. We extend prior analyses by more accurately incorporating multiple stellar encounters and dynamical relaxation timescales, simulating ... Read more
