Princeton University Dark Cosmos Seminar

Simulating self-interacting dark matter with AREPO-2
Oliver Zier
4:00pm|Jadwin Hall, Joe Henry Room

Abstract: Self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) is a well-motivated extension of ΛCDM that can alter the inner structure of haloes via collisional heat transport. It has been explored as a possible solution to small-scale tensions such as the cusp-...

PCTS Lecture

Quantum computing, simulation, and sensing with atoms, ions, and light
Peter Zoller
5:00pm|McDonnell Hall, Room A-02

Abstract: Quantum mechanics governs nature at its smallest scales—but today we can engineer that quantum world by creating and controlling entanglement, the unique fingerprint of quantum physics. Using laser-controlled atoms and ions, researchers...

Princeton University Donald R. Hamilton Lecture

The Statistical Physics of Flocks and Swarms
Irene Giardina
6:00pm|McDonnell Hall, A-02

Abstract: Flocks and swarms are iconic examples of living matter, in which motile, interacting individuals give rise to emergent global patterns. Despite the complexity of their biological components, these groups obey robust statistical laws and...
