2016 Lecture Series: The LHC Resumes Operation and Prepares Its Future
Lecture by Frédérick Bordry. Director of the Acceleratores and Technology Sector, CERN 1:06:03
Synopsis
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), with a circumference of 27 kilometers, was built at CERN to explore particle physics at the energy frontier. It was approved in 1994 after ten years’ work building prototypes of the main accelerator components, and finally began running in 2009 and gathering data as of 2010.
After start-up, the accelerator ran successfully for three years, delivering an impressive quantity of data to LHC experiments and operating with a center-of-mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV. Following an extensive technical stoppage (LS1 two years), LHC physics was successfully resumed in 2015 with a new energy record of 13 TeV.
This talk will examine the main technical challenges facing the LHC and describe its restart at 13 TeV. Plans to maximize collider performance in the coming decades include upgrade work on the accelerator and detectors (the high-luminosity LHC). The speaker will also look ahead to the post-LHC era.
Bio-notes
Frédérick Bordry has been Director of CERN’s Accelerators and Technology Sector since January 2014, and was recently confirmed in the appointment as part of the new team of Director-General Fabiola Gianotti. He is responsible for the operation of the whole CERN accelerator complex, with particular emphasis on the LHC and the development of new projects and technologies.
He holds a PhD in electrical engineering and energy conversion. After several years teaching at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (Brazil), he took up a teaching and research post at the University of Toulouse before joining CERN in 1986. From 1994 onwards, he took part in the design and construction of CERN’s flagship particle accelerator, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), which made possible the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012.
As a convinced advocate of international exchange in the cultural, political and scientific fields, he has devoted a considerable amount of time to reflecting on issues relating to education, research and multilingualism.

2016 Series of Lectures on Astrophysics and Cosmology: science of the cosmos, science in the cosmos
Directed by: Ana Achúcarro
There is still so much we do not know about the cosmos! Samuel Ting opens the series with a talk on cosmic rays and anti-matter, and what we have learned from detecting them in space with the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer experiment aboard the International Space Station. Cosmic rays have their origin in ultra-energetic astrophysical processes that we still fail to understand. Werner Hofmann talks about these cosmic particle accelerators and the future network of telescopes that will attempt to answer these questions: the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), some parts of it sited in the Canary Islands.
Reinhard Genzel studies the evolution of galaxies and the role played by black holes. For two decades, Genzel and his team have been observing the black hole at the center of our galaxy and reconstructing stellar orbits in its vicinity. The resulting images are memorable indeed.
Closer to home, the exploration of the solar system (the subject of Mark McCaughrean’s talk) has recently caught the imagination of the wider public through iconic images of distant worlds that raise more questions than they solve. Even our own star, the Sun, has numerous secrets. Saku Tsuneta shows astonishing films of the solar magnetic field and solar flares taken from the Japanese observatory Hinode. Besides its scientific interest, solar activity affects our climate and may on occasion cut off satellite communications. The protective role of the Earth’s magnetic field also holds important clues to the conditions needed for life to exist on other planets.
But many of us will remember 2016 for David Reitze’s already famous February statement: “Ladies and gentlemen, we have detected gravitational waves. We did it!” Measuring a distortion of space equal to one part in 10 21 is an astounding technological feat. This is a long awaited discovery that has demanded over forty years of technological development, spectacular advances in computing, and the work and dedication of around a thousand scientists. We are lucky enough to have David Reitze with us to tell the story.
The direct detection of gravitational waves by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) in the United States, as part of a joint effort with European experiments Virgo and GEO600, has opened a new window onto the Universe which will undoubtedly revolutionize what we know about the cosmos and some of the most energetic processes unfolding within it. For the moment, we can revel in the first evidence of the fusion of two black holes, each with a mass some thirty times greater than the Sun’s. Proof that these giants do exist.

Lecture by Samuel Ting from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Nobel Prize 1:06:19
Synopsis
There are two types of cosmic rays that reach Earth from outer space. The first type are electrically neutral (photons and neutrinos), whose study using spaceborne, ground-based and underground telescopes and detectors has contributed greatly to our understanding of the Universe. The second type of cosmic rays carry charge and mass and are absorbed in the Earth’s atmosphere. Their study calls for a precision magnetic spectrometer located in space, beyond the atmosphere, to identify their mass, electrical charge, energy and directionality. The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is a precision particle physics detector deployed on the International Space Station in May 2011, which in its first four years measured 76 billion cosmic rays. The precision of the detector and its ability to measure and distinguish cosmic atomic nuclei have changed our understanding of the properties of charged cosmic rays.
Bio notes
Samuel Ting received the 1976 Nobel Prize for the discovery of the J particle at Brookhaven National Laboratory (United States), one of many awards and honors bestowed on him in his research career. His seminal results include the observation of nuclear anti-matter (the anti-deuteron) and a long series of precision studies that have demonstrated the validity of key aspects of the Standard Model of elementary particles. He also developed the first large superconducting magnet (2 tons) for spaceborne research and has demonstrated separation of helium isotopes in space. He currently leads a fifteen-nation collaboration involving some 500 physicists and engineers to use the International Space Station U.S. National Laboratory to probe fundamental questions of cosmology and elementary particle physics, including the origin of cosmic rays, the nature of dark matter and the search for traces of primordial anti-matter.

This is a rapid-response workshop on the emerging methods in AMO physics for cosmological searches and detections. Whether it is sensing, timing, quantum entanglement, time variability of fundamental constants, macroscopic quantum systems, AMO physics is increasingly being applied for precision tests of gravity and the equivalence principle and for search and detection of cosmological phenomena (dark matter, dark energy, CMB anisotropy, gravitational waves, 21 cm dark ages...).

Connecting Few-body and Many-body Pictures of Fractional Quantum Hall Physics (2016)
# click the up-left corner to select videos from the playlist
source: ITAMP Physics 2016年7月26日
The treatment of strongly-interacting fermions or bosons in a real or effective magnetic field lies at the heart of current interests in both many-body condensed matter physics and ultracold atomic, molecular, and optical physics. On the theory side, many questions remain to be solved in both types of systems, such as the general role of topology and entanglement in FQH systems, properties of edge states and novel stripe, bubble, melting or other phases, and the most efficient theoretical tools for identifying the filling fractions where FQH states will stand out experimentally, to name only a few. Experimentally, the condensed matter systems are now studied in great detail, and this is certainly a tremendously mature field, whereas theoretical debates are still struggling to reach a consensus about the nature of many of the FQH states. On the other hand, experiments for ultracold atom and correlated photonic systems are still in development phases that are ripe for a free-wheeling exchange of ideas, to seek out promising avenues for ways to observe Laughlin, composite-fermion, composite-boson states, or other novel states in free-space or lattice geometries. In addition to seeking answers to these types of specific physical questions, another goal for this workshop is to encourage a free exchange of ideas between AMO physicists and members of the condensed-matter community. This is likely to spawn a useful exchange of ideas, pictures, and terminology, and potentially future collaborations as well.

New questions in quantum field theory from condensed matter theory
Organizers: Subhro Bhattacharjee, Rajesh Gopakumar, Subroto Mukerjee and Aninda Sinha
Url: http://www.icts.res.in/discussion_meeting/qft2015/
Dates: Monday 28 Dec, 2015 - Tuesday 05 Jan, 2016
Description: The last couple of decades have seen a major revolution in the field of condensed matter physics, where the severe limitations of conventional paradigms (viz., spontaneous symmetry breaking and Landau’s Fermi liquid framework) have been repeatedly exposed in context of a large number of correlated electronic systems. This has led to a wide search for a more general framework that can successfully capture the low energy properties of the unconventional quantum many-body systems. The quickly expanding frontiers of this field have, among other things, explored ideas involving different ways of manifestation of symmetries in condensed matter systems, role of quantum entanglement, bulk-edge correspondence and gauge-gravity duality. This has thrown wide open newer frontiers, in turn, for fruitful exchanges between condensed matter and quantum field theory, and string theory, which have seen parallel remarkable developments over the last two decades.
In view of these current advances, the discussion meeting aims to bring together researchers to foster and develop the above connections between the two disciplines for free exchange of ideas -- both at conceptual and technical levels.

DISCUSSION MEETING : ADVANCES IN GRAPHENE, MAJORANA FERMIONS, QUANTUM COMPUTATION
DATES
Wednesday 19 Dec, 2012 - Friday 21 Dec, 2012
VENUE
Auditorium, New Physical Sciences Building, IISc
Quantum computation is one of the most fundamental and important research topics today, from both theoretical and experimental perspectives. A fault tolerant computation scheme, such as that protected against dephasing or decay of quantum information, is crucial for this purpose. It has been known for some time that a class of quasi-particles of non-abelian braiding statistics, such as the Majorana fermions, can be an excellent platform to achieve such a topologically protected quantum computation. While recent discovery of the Majorana fermions in semiconductor nanowires have boosted the quantum computation community, other material platforms, in particular graphene, are also being researched extensively. Much research is directed towards electron-electron interaction and non-trivial p-type superconductivity in graphene with the ultimate aim to create and detect Majorana fermions in these systems. This Discussion Meeting on "Advances in Graphene, Majorana fermions, and Quantum Computation" showcases in-depth scientific presentations and debates on these globally active fields of research today. The participation of many leaders in these fields from all over the world will make this meeting a scientifically exciting event for the local active research community.

These lectures will cover three modern topics in physics: graphene, quantum computation, and Majorana fermions. Graphene is a two-dimensional Dirac material existing in nature where the energy dispersion follows the chiral massless Dirac-Weyl equation. It has very intriguing properties which will be discussed at length. Quantum computation is a new theoretical paradigm for computation where the full power of quantum resources, namely superposition and entanglement, is utilized to solve problems which are beyond the realm of classical computation. Since quantum decoherence is the real enemy of quantum computation with quantum states disappearing rather fast in nature (i.e. before any successful computation could be carried out), a revolutionary new way of carrying out quantum computation uses topological quantum matter where emergent Majorana fermions with non-Abelian anyonic statistics can be braided to create the elementary computation steps. Topology provides the immunity for these Majorana fermions which do not decohere. The lectures will cover quantum computation and will discuss the recent possible discovery of Majorana fermions in semiconductor-superconductor hybrid systems.
The Quantum Phases of Matter (1-3) - Subir Sachdev (2013)

Quantum mechanics was developed in the early twentieth century to describe the motion of a single electron in a hydrogen atom. Later, Einstein and others pointed out that the quantum theory of a pair of electrons had non-intuitive features which they found unpalatable: two well-separatedelectrons can have their quantum states "entangled", indicating that they talk to each other quantum mechanically, even though they are far apart. Today, quantum entanglement is not viewed as a subtle microscopic effect of interest only to a few physicists, but as a crucial ingredient necessary for a complete understanding of the many phases of matter. A crystal can have roughly trillion trillion electrons entangled with each other, and the different patterns of entanglement lead to phases which are magnets, metals, or superconductors. I will give a simple discussion of these and other remarkable features of the quantum mechanics of a trillion trillion electrons, and of their importance to a variety of technologically important materials. The theory also has surprising and unexpected connections to string theory: remarkably, this connects the motion of electrons within a plane of a crystal in the laboratory, to the theory of astrophysical black holes similar to those studied by Chandrasekhar.

Chris Douvos began his career at the Princeton University Investment Company before becoming the co-head of Private Equity Investing at The Investment Fund for Foundations. Currently, Chris is the Managing Director of fund-of-funds Venture Investment Associates, and is well-known for his blog “Super LP.”
In this fireside chat, Chris examines the manner in which he and his companies identify talented venture capitalists and promising funds, and balance institutional portfolios to minimize risk and maximize potential rewards. Chris also discusses the manner in which LP investment strategies adjust with changing economic trends and the corresponding adjustment in the role of an institutional investor.
MS&E 476 Course Description: We often discuss how technology is reinvented and disrupted, but there is also a good amount of change occurring within the venture capital industry. Within the past several decades there have been new entrants, from incubators to angels to different models of venture capital.
The course explores changes in the venture capital industry: from the rise of Sand Hill Road and investing in the dot-com bubble, to incubators and accelerators, equity crowdfunding platform, and different models of venture capital today. Through lectures, guest speakers and interviews, the course explores how companies are funded, grown, and scaled, hearing from individuals who have been at the forefront of the industry as investors, technologists and entrepreneurs.
Gene editing revolution: should there be limits?
source: Oxford Martin School 2017年1月25日
Gene editing promises to precisely modify the human DNA of embryos. This could cure genetic disorders, eradicate genes contributing to common human diseases and further research into disease. But it could also be used to enhance normal human traits like intelligence, memory and even moral dispositions. The prospect of designer humans has led scientists to call for a moratorium on this research. But what should the limits be?

The Illusion of Self - Hume & Buddhism
source: Philosophical Overdose 2017年1月16日
Descartes famously claimed that the one thing which is absolutely certain and cannot be doubted is the existence of himself as a conscious thinking subject. But the existence of the self has been challenged, both in the east and west. David Hume maintained that there's only a bundle of memories, perceptions, and thoughts, but no underlying subject or self which "has" them, to which they belong and are held together. So too, Buddhists also reject the existence of a self which persists through time, as a consequence of a rejection of permanence generally. This all sounds quite counterintuitive, especially to the western ear. What are the implications? What does this mean for ethics and our conception of mind?
