Physics Calendar

The Physics calendar contains High Energy Theory events hosted by the Institute for Advanced Study and Princeton University. A condensed version of the calendar is sent to the general Physics mailing list on Friday afternoons. Reminder emails are sent the morning of the event. If you are a local faculty member, postdoc or graduate student and would like to be added to the general Physics mailing list, please contact Lisa Fleischer, lisa@ias.edu

Princeton University Gravity Initiative Special Seminar

Black Holes Are Watching You

Gautam Satishchandran

12:30pm|Princeton University, Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor & Zoom

Abstract: We show that if a massive body is put in a quantum superposition of spatially separated states, the mere presence of a black hole in the vicinity of the body will eventually destroy the coherence of the superposition. This occurs because...

Princeton University Department of Physics Donald R. Hamilton Colloquium Series

Superconductivity in Infinite-Layer Nickelates

Harold Hwang

4:00pm|Jadwin Hall A-10

Abstract:

Finding unconventional superconductors in proximity to various strongly correlated electronic phases has been a recurring theme in materials as diverse as heavy fermion compounds, cuprates, pnictides, and twisted bilayer graphene. The...

Princeton University Gravity Initiative Fall Seminar Series

Bulk-boundary Correspondence for Vacuum Asymptotically Anti-de Sitter Spacetimes

Arick Shao

12:30pm|Princeton University, Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor & Zoom

Abstract: The AdS/CFT conjecture in physics posits the existence of a correspondence between gravitational theories in asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (aAdS) spacetimes and field theories on their conformal boundary. In this presentation, we prove a...

Old (and some new) Results on Non-perturbative Scattering Amplitudes

Miguel Correia

2:00pm|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

The Institute for Advanced Study requires that all adult visitors, collaborators, conference and on-campus seminar attendees and outside vendors coming to the Institute are required to have completed a COVID-19 vaccination and booster in order to...
