SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:RTG Number Theory Seminar: Gaitsgory's central sheaves
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: We will geometrize Bernstein's description of the center of the Iwahori--Hecke algebra\, by way of Gaitsgory's central sheaves. To this end\, we will define the functor of nearby cycles and apply it to several variations of the affine Grassmannian.\n\nSeminar webpage: https://umrep.github.io/

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Change it Up! To Stop Anti-Black Racism: Part 2\, Writing Your Bystander Intervention Script Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Change it Up! To Stop Anti-Black Racism (CiU!ABR) program has conducted bystander intervention training workshops for the College of Engineering since 2020 and for the wider university community since the fall of 2023. Participant feedback and the overall goals of the program necessitated a second workshop where participants could continue to practice their bystander intervention skills. The Writing Your Bystander Intervention Script (WYBIS) Workshop allows participants to take a situation from their real lives\, then work through intervention strategies to develop a script for the future. Participants will explore their goals for intervention\, the different types of microaggressions\, the impact of fight/flight/freeze\, and other concepts through partner and small group discussion.\nTo participate in WYBIS\, you must have previously attended a CiU!ABR workshop.\nThis workshop is designed for University of Michigan master’s students\, doctoral students\, and postdoctoral fellows. For faculty and staff\, please contact rackhampdeworkshops@umich.edu to see if we can accommodate your attendance.\nRegistration is required at https://myumi.ch/ZDN1G.\nWe want to ensure full and equitable participation in our events. If an accommodation would promote your full participation in this event\, please follow the registration link to indicate your accommodation requirements. Please let us know as soon as possible in order to have adequate time\, preferably one week\, to arrange for your requested accommodations or an effective alternative.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | A Quantum Computer as an Axion Dark Matter Detector
DESCRIPTION:The QCD axion model solves the longest standing problem in fundamental physics – the vanishing of the neutron electric dipole moment – while also providing a cosmological origin story for dark matter.   While present axion dark matter search experiments are limited by quantum zero point noise\, new single microwave photon receivers based on superconducting qubits provide orders of magnitude noise reduction below the standard quantum limit.  Using advanced quantum information processing techniques currently in development\, next generation experiments will be the first to deploy a rudimentary quantum computer as the front end for the readout electronics.  Combined with recent advances in magnetic field-compatible microwave cavities\, these experiments will finally reach sensitivity to the predicted axion photon couplings over a decade in mass in the 10-100 micro-eV range.
