Physics Colloquium: Millisecond Pulsars, Basic Physics, and NANOGrav

Date: March 2, 2018 Time: 1:30-2:30pm Location: PSB 160/161 Speaker: Scott M. Ransom Title: Millisecond Pulsars, Basic Physics, and NANOGrav Abstract: Pulsars are some of physics and astrophysics' most exotic objects, and they have already earned two Nobel Prizes. We currently know of more thabn 2500 of them in our Galaxy, but a small subset, the millisecond pulsars (MSPs), …

Physics Colloquium: Strong-Field Physics Using Waveform-Controlled Mid-Infrared Pulses

Date: March 9, 2018 Time: 1:30-2:30pm Location: PSB 160/161 Speaker: Kyung-Han Hong (MIT) Title: Strong-Field Physics Using Waveform-Controlled Mid-Infrared Pulses Abstract: One of the unique features of strong-field light-matter interactions is its dependence on electric field, E(t), of driving laser pulses unlike typical nonlinear interactions that rely on laser intensity profile, I(t). This enables to control tunnel-ionized free electrons …
