Electron solids in two-dimensional semiconductor heterostructuresAtomically thin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors and heterostructures offer an exciting platform for the study of tunable correlated electronic phenomena. The interaction between electrons in 2D semiconductors can be adjusted by manipulating the electron density and confinement potential, leading to the formation of various electron solid phases. When electrons are confined ...
On Dec 13, 2022, the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Accelerator Laboratory achieved Ignition. 2.05MJoule produced by 192 lasers were converted into 3.15Mjoule of fusion power. The first time on earth, controlled nuclear fusion produced a net positive power reaction. This is a major scientific milestone that ...
The Search for Wavy Dark Matter: Axions ABRACADABRA to DMRadio The particle nature of dark matter remains one of the great open questions in physics. There is a broad category of candidates whose mass is so light that they behave more as waves than as particles. The most well-known is the axion, which has had a renaissance as a dark ...
Climate change is escalating the frequency and severity of natural disasters worldwide, necessitating urgent societal adaptation. In this talk, I present a multimodal machine learning (ML) framework designed to predict natural disasters. Traditionally, weather forecasting has depended on dynamical equations for over a century. However, recent advancements in artificial intelligence ...
Seeking the first galaxies to form after the Big Bang is the primary rationale for building the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). These first galaxies have eluded the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) because the expansion of the Universe has stretched their light to wavelengths undetectable by HST. With its increased ...
