Martin Savage (University of Washington) “Quantum Simulations for HEP and NP”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

Abstract: Theoretical predictions of the properties and dynamics of quantum many-body systems of importance to  High-energy and nuclear physics research are anticipated to require, in many instances, beyond classical computational resources.  Such systems may be amenable to quantum simulations in …

Xiaosheng Huang (USF) “Strong Gravitational Lenses Discovered in the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

ABSTRACT:We have discovered over 1500 new strong lensing candidates in the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Legacy Imaging Surveys using residual neural networks.  The photometric redshifts of the candidate lenses are broadly distributed between 0.1 and 1.  Follow-up observations are …

Mike Williams (MIT)   Searching for physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHCb experiment

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

Abstract:  The LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has been the world's premier laboratory for studying processes in which the quark types (or flavors) change since 2011. Such processes are highly sensitive to quantum-mechanical contributions from …
