SUMMARY:Presentation:Viral Justice: How We Grow the World We Want
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we welcome Dr. Ruha Benjamin to campus to talk about her new book\, Viral Justice: How We Grow the World We Want. Trained as a sociologist\, Dr. Benjamin’s research sits at the intersection of science\, technology\, and medicine. Viral Justice draws on lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and amplified movements for racial justice and\, in doing so\, “offers a passionate\, inspiring\, and practical vision of how small changes can add up to large ones\, transforming our relationships and communities and helping us build a more just and joyful world.” Part memoir\, part manifesto\, Viral Justice is a sweeping and deeply personal exploration of how we can transform society through the choices we make every day.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Cognitive Science Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Cognitive Science Seminar Series is an informal gathering of graduate students and faculty from multiple departments with an interest in presenting and discussing cognitive science topics. The seminars are held weekly throughout the academic year on Tuesdays from 2:30-3:50 PM in Weiser 955.\n______\n\nTitle\nnvestigating the Source of Neg-First Biases in Typology and Acquisition\n\nAbstract\nThe tendency for negation to appear early in the sentence\, dubbed the “Neg-First principle” by Horn (1989:452)\, has been observed in the domains of typology\, language contact\, and language acquisition. While scholars have speculated about the source and universality of the Neg-First principle based on such evidence\, these hypotheses have not been widely tested or corroborated using experimental methods. In this talk\, I will report two artificial language learning experiments which investigate the effect of language experience on the behavioral bias to produce preverbal negation among speakers of English and Japanese\, as well as the hypothesis that the Neg-First principle is driven by factors of audience design in communication. While English speakers show a preference to produce preverbal negation even in the absence of communication\, Japanese speakers do not\, challenging the idea of a universal preference for preverbal negation in acquisition as a plausible candidate for shaping linguistic typology. Though one possibility is that the cross-linguistic prevalence of preverbal negation results from historical forces rather than pressures on learning and use\, more nuanced explanations which maintain the role of biases which are present independent of language experience remain to be explored.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Wage Inequality in American Manufacturing\, 1820-1940: New Evidence
DESCRIPTION:The consensus view among economic historians is that wage inequality in American manufacturing followed an inverted-U path from the early nineteenth century until just before World War Two. The previous literature\, however\, has been unable to fully document this path over time\, or fully assess the role of explanatory factors such as changes in firm organization and technology. We provide fresh evidence that allows us to better document the inverted U as well as its causes. In the first part of the paper\, we use the Department of Labor’s Hand and Machine Labor Study to show that wage inequality within manufacturing establishments rose over the nineteenth century. In the second part\, we use information from Massachusetts on construct a new time series showing that wage inequality among production workers declined from the 1890s to the late 1930s. For both periods technology played a role – the shift to steam-powered factories over the nineteenth century raised wage inequality\, whereas electrification after 1900 reduced it.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Observation of a Massive Phason and THz Phonon-Driven Kerr Effects in a Weyl Charge Density Wave
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the fundamental collective excitations of an emergent many-body interacting system has been a crosscutting theme throughout many branches of physics. Key questions about the dynamics of these excitations in the presence of both many-body physics and topology are currently driving numerous major research efforts in quantum materials. One such material is (TaSe_4)_2I - a Weyl semimetal that undergoes charge density wave (CDW) ordering below 260 K. I will discuss two of our recent experiments using nonlinear light-matter interaction in the terahertz (THz) range to directly probe the dynamics of the collective excitations of (TaSe_4)_2I. I will first show how upon transient photoexcitation at low temperatures (TaSe_4)_2I strikingly emits coherent\, narrow-band THz radiation. The frequency\, polarization and temperature dependence of the emitted radiation imply the existence of a phason that acquires mass by coupling to long-range Coulomb interaction\, giving a direct measurement of the Anderson-Higgs mechanism. Second\, I will show our recent results using THz pump\, IR Kerr probe spectroscopy on (TaSe_4)_2I to highlight how THz-driven phonons can induce a sizeable dynamic optical Kerr rotation in this otherwise time-reversal invariant system. I will briefly discuss both these results in the context of the predicted axion electrodynamics in (TaSe_4)_2I.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:International Student Career Series: How to Navigate Small Talk
DESCRIPTION:\"In the United States\, many people participate in what is called \"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\, where you make conversation with strangers or acquaintances about non-controversial topics\, such as the weather\, sports\,or popular television shows. “Small talk” is one of the ways in American culture to chat about harmless topics in order to establish a connection and start to build a friendship.\n\nFor example\, while waiting for an interview\, in line at a M-Den\, or in an elevator on campus\, don’t be startled if a stranger says something to you like\, “Did you watch the Football Game last night? What a game!” They might also make a joke aboutthe long line you’re both in\, or comment on the current situation.\n\nIf you are interested in learning more about \"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"small talk\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\"\, now it’s your chance to sign up for this workshop on how to navigate small talk as an international student. In this workshop\, we will educate you on what is small talk and you will also have the chance to practice small talk with Peers!\"
