Welcome back! Join us in kicking off the Fall 2023 semester with pizza for snack time!
Past Events
Supermassive Black Hole Modeling for the Low-Frequency Gravitational-Wave Era
Abstract: Supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries are extremely powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs) at ~ nanoHertz to milliHertz frequencies. They are likely candidates to explain the evidence for a nanoHertz GW background recently presented by pulsar timing arrays (PTAs).
Heralded Spectroscopy - a new probe for nanocrystal multiexciton photophysics
Abstract:
Emitters of quantum light are at the core of quantum optic science and a key resource for emerging classical and quantum technologies. Yet, to date, the tools available to study multiple-photon quantum light sources, specifically temporally and spectrally in parallel, have been limited. A prominent example is multiply-excited semiconductor quantum dots - an intriguing system that features rich physics and technological potential but lacks direct observation techniques.
Hamiltonian Learning of classical and quantum field theories
Talk may be moved to JILA Auditorium if X590 is not large enough to accomodate all attendees.

Abstract:
Popsicles and Lawn Games
It's summertime, and it's hot out! Come join us for ice cold popsicles and to play lawn games with your fellow JILAns!
Watermelon Day
It's watermelon day! Join us for some refreshing watermelon for snack time. All JILAns are welcome!
Condensed Phase Isomerization through Tunneling Gateways
Abstract: Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) provide sufficient sensitivity to enable laser induced fluorescence (LIF) experiments in the mid-infrared, an exciting technical development for studying molecule-surface interactions. In this talk, I will present results of experiments on the vibrational dynamics of monolayers and multilayers of solid CO adsorbed at the surface of a NaCl crystal that provide observations of quantum state resolved dynamics.

Snacks from Regal Group
The Regal group will be providing snacks for JILA on 7/27. Come join us for a special snack time, thanks to the Regal group!
Brat Cookout Open configuration options
It's time again for JILA's annual brat cookout! But this time, it will be back at JILA, outside under the A-tower! The instrument shop staff will be grilling up brats, and there will be a variety of lawn games to play. All JILAns are welcome!
Amelia Earhart Day
Come celebrate Amelia Earhart's birthday a few days early with birthday cake and a paper airplane flying contest! We'll meet in the h-bar for cake and to launch paper airplanes off the h-bar patio. Judges will select winners in different categories, and paper will be provided!

Exploring New Quantum Horizons
Abstract: Quantum computers, machines that harness the power of quantum physics and have the potential to outperform their classical counterparts, have recently captured the public's imagination. Amidst the waves of hype and skepticism in the media, what is at the origin of the excitement and what is the real progress of this quest at the frontiers of quantum science and engineering?
