CMSA General Relativity: Gravitational perturbations near to extreme Kerr

CMSA GENERAL RELATIVITY SEMINAR, SEMINARS, CMSA EVENTS

March 30, 2023      9:30 am
Speaker: Alejandra Castro - University of Cambridge

Gravitational perturbations of a black hole illustrate the invaluable synergy between theory, experiment, and numerical simulations in general relativity. A recent development in the theory side has been the identification...

CMSA Active Matter: The Role of Orientational Order in Development

SEMINARS, CMSA EVENTS

March 30, 2023      1:00 pm
Speaker: Mark Bowick - Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, UCSB

Morphogenesis, the process through which genes generate form, establishes tissue scale order as a template for constructing the complex shapes of the body plan. The extensive growth required to build...

CMSA General Relativity: New Phases of N=4 SYM

CMSA GENERAL RELATIVITY SEMINAR, SEMINARS, CMSA EVENTS

March 23, 2023      1:30 pm
Speaker: Prahar Mitra - University of Cambridge

We construct new static solutions to gauged supergravity that, via the AdS/CFT correspondence, are dual to thermal phases in N=4 SYM at finite chemical potential. These solutions dominate the micro-canonical ensemble and...
