calendar dates

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

IAS Physics Group Meeting

Duality of Turbulence to a Solvable String Theory with Discrete Target Space
11:00am|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

Abstract: The Navier–Stokes (NS) equations describe fluid dynamics through a high-dimensional, nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) system. Despite their fundamental importance, their behavior in turbulent regimes remains incompletely...

Princeton University Donald R. Hamilton Lecture

The Search for the Most Distant Galaxies
Marcia J. Rieke
6:00pm|McDonnell Hall, A-02

Abstract: The James Webb Space Telescope was called the "First Light Machine" when it was being studied as a potential NASA mission.  It quickly became obvious that it would be impossible to prove that the "first" galaxy had been seen, but much more...

Princeton University High Energy Theory Seminar

String Perturbation Theory of Klebanov-Strassler Throat
Manki Kim
11:00am|Jadwin Hall, PCTS Room 407

Abstract: In this talk, I will explain how to study string perturbation theory of the Klebanov-Strassler solution in the large radius approximation based on open-closed superstring field theory. Combining the large radius expansion and a double...

Using Multi-Scale Simulations to Probe the Physics of Multi-Messenger Transients
Ore Gottlieb
12:30pm|Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor

Abstract: With the advent of next-generation multi-messenger observatories, multi-messenger events will offer unprecedented opportunities to address profound questions in black hole physics, heavy element nucleosynthesis, jet dynamics, cosmic...

Physical Applications of Fusion 2-Categories
Matthew Yu
11:00am|Bloomberg Lecture Hall (IAS)

Abstract: Fusion 2-categories offer a higher dimensional generalization of the category of symmetries in (1+1)d. I will explain how to leverage fusion 2-categories in a special case and apply them to understand the categorical structure of (3+1)d...

Decay for Massless Vlasov Fields on Schwarzschild Spacetimes - A Hamiltonian Approach
Renato Velozo Ruiz
12:30pm|Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor

Abstract: In this talk, I will present a Hamiltonian approach to show decay for massless Vlasov fields on the exterior of black hole backgrounds. Vlasov fields are transported along the geodesic flow, and so, the existence of trapped geodesics is an...
