Electromagnetic fields represent a fundamental aspect of nature and serve as the primary carrier of energy. New abilities to control electromagnetic fields, as enabled for example by the developments of metamaterials and nanophotonic structures, can therefore have profound implications for energy technology. In this talk we will discuss some of ...

Dark Matter Scattering in Low Threshold DetectorsOnly 20% of the matter in our universe is visible to us, while the remaining "dark" matter has so far remained elusive to our best experimental efforts. Upcoming detector technology however makes it possible to search for much lighter dark matter candidates than every before. For these dark matter candidates, ...

Neurophysics: revealing the emergence of cognition from the collective dynamics of interacting neuronsRemarkable advances in experimental neuroscience now enable us to simultaneously observe and perturb the activity of many neurons, thereby providing an unprecedented opportunity to understand how the moment by moment collective dynamics of the brain instantiates cognition. We will review some of our recent work in this area focusing on ...
