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 ...

Programming Interaction and Assembly with Magnetic Handshake Materials

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

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
