Description: This training was developed by the Center for the Improvement of Mentored Experiences in Research (CIMER) at University of Wisconsin Madison and provides evidence-based, interactive mentor training curricula that engages mentors in collective problem solving and connects them with resources to optimize their mentoring practices. Mentors engage in activities, assignments, case studies, and facilitated discussions to solve mentoring dilemmas and share successful mentorship strategies.

Abstract: 

New tools of light for increasingly refined observation and control of molecules are providing new opportunities to study complex structure and emergent quantum properties, to set new bounds for fundamental symmetry, to probe real-time reaction kinetics, and to apply molecular sensing for medical diagnosis. Meanwhile, quantum gases of molecules constitutes an outstanding experimental platform for precise quantum state engineering and control of inter-molecular interactions, enabling exploration of novel chemical reactions and quantum magnetism.

Abstract: We will discuss a dimensional hierarchy of the following over lattice systems of qudits.

Abstract: Convective Mass Flux (CMF) – the vertical transport of air and water by deep convective storms – drives the large-scale circulation, upper tropospheric moistening, high cloud-raditiave feedbacks, surface precipitation rates, and extreme weather. Despite the fundamental role played by CMF, our understanding of the processes controlling CMF is rudimentary, and the representation of CMF remains a major source of error in our numerical models across the scales.

Abstract: Electrochemistry involves chemical reactions that are driven by the movement of electrons and ions, typically occurring at surfaces or interfaces. A key example is rechargeable batteries, where ions migrate through the liquid electrolyte and electrons flow through the external circuit. The electrochemical reactions take place at the electrode–electrolyte interface where electrode materials receive both ions (Li+, Na+, etc) and electrons during discharging, and release them during charging, enabling the reversible storage of electricity.

JILA post-docs community gathering.

A virtual meeting where JILA Fellows and some students and postdocs will present recent developments at JILA on research thrusts carried out by the JILA  Physics Frontier Center. A Center funded by the NSF. You are all welcome and encouraged to join.

Abstract: Field massive stars are more easily identified and studied than those in crowded cluster environments.  While some massive stars may form in relative isolation, most are ejected from clusters via dynamical processes and supernova kicks in binary systems.  Since both mechanisms are driven by binarity in the massive star population, field stars and their kinematics probe the effects of binarity, which can strongly influence stellar evolution by the tr
