    CMSA Quantum Matter in Mathematics and Physics Seminar: Probing the Standard Model of Particle Physics Using the Muon Anomalous Magnetic Moment

    10:30 AM-12:30 PM
    August 19, 2021

    We present the first results of the Muon g-2 Experiment at Fermilab National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) and its potential theory interpretations. In the first talk the experiment method and highlights of the data analysis are presented. In the second talk the Standard Model theory prediction will be briefly explained and potential implications for physics beyond the Standard Model will be discussed. We will focus both on general aspects of model predictions as well as the current status of motivated scenarios such as the two-Higgs doublet model or the minimal supersymmetric standard model.

    CMSA Quantum Matter in Mathematics and Physics Seminar: Conformal Field Theory and Modern Numerical Approach to Condensed Matter Physics

    8:30 PM-10:00 PM
    August 19, 2021

    Conformal field theory (CFT) in 1+1 dimensions is a powerful framework to investigate critical phenomena. Recent developments of  advanced numerical algorithms, especially tensor-network based methods, have enabled very accurate verifications of CFT predictions. They can be also combined with CFT to improve the numerical estimates. In this talk, I will review some of the applications of bulk and boundary CFT to interesting problems in condensed matter or statistical physics, and recent developments. Examples include the conduction across a junction of Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids, and an extremely precise determination of the transition temperature for the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.
