SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:DataLumos: An Update on the Crowd-sourced Repository for Valuable Government Data
DESCRIPTION:DataLumos is an ICPSR archive for valuable government data resources. ICPSR has a long commitment to safekeeping and disseminating US government and other social science data. DataLumos accepts deposits of public data resources from the community and recommendations of public data resources that ICPSR itself might add to DataLumos. Visit datalumos.org to learn more.\n\nThis webinar is part of the 2026 ICPSR Data Fair @ Love Data Week. For more information\, please visit myumi.ch/ICPSRLoveDataWeek.\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. The webinar will be recorded\, and the recording\, along with the slides (when available)\, will be made available in the 2026 Love Data Week YouTube playlist at https://myumi.ch/y1jm8.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Brown Bag Seminar | Maximizing the Interaction Strength
DESCRIPTION:QCD remains intractable in the high-energy soft regime\, where all standard methods break down. This regime governs total hadronic cross-sections\, which have long been observed to grow with energy\, a phenomenon that is still very poorly understood today. In this talk\, I will argue that the modern S-matrix bootstrap provides a systematic way to tackle this regime of QCD. I will derive an upper bound on the total cross-section at finite energy and present the strongest interacting amplitude that the bootstrap outputs. I will compare these results with proton–proton experimental data.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Interdisciplinary QC-CM Seminar | Strong Terahertz electrodynamics in emergent 2D materials
DESCRIPTION:Terahertz (THz) sensing and imaging are critical in both quantum information technology and biomedical sensing because THz frequencies (0.1-10 THz) resonate with key low-energy information carriers (e.g.\, coherent phonons and magnons) in quantum materials and molecular vibrations in biological matter (e.g.\, skin tumor tissues and blood cells). In addition\, materials with THz response are essential building blocks for the next generation telecommunication technology. However\, the widespread use of THz technology has long been hindered by a lack of materials with strong THz light-matter interactions for high-performance devices.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present our recent advances in two-dimensional (2D) quantum materials to overcome these limitations by leveraging their unique topological properties and exploiting the resulting strong light-matter interactions. One remarkable example is the recently discovered nonlinear Hall effect (NHE) in 2D topological semimetals\, mediated by their diverging quantum geometrical properties [1-3]. In the first part of the talk\, I will report how we use this new notion to demonstrate the long-sought THz sensing metrics [4]. Specifically\, we have experimentally studied the unique interplay among the quantum geometrical properties\, gate-tunable electron correlation and THz electrodynamics in atomically thin topological semimetals TaIrTe 4 . Building upon the nonlinear Hall effect as a new mechanism for THz rectification\, we have observed a large zero-bias responsivity (~ 0.3 A/W)\, ultralow NEP (~pW/Hz 1/2 )\, broadband THz response (0.1 to 10 THz) and ultrafast intrinsic speed (~ ps) at room temperature. The device performance can be further enhanced by introducing gate-tunable electron correlations. Thanks to the new topological physics and strong electron correlation\, the demonstrated device metrics show tremendous advantages over the attainable THz detectors based on other 2D materials and conventional technology. Beyond light probing\, the rich interplay physics in this platform also allows using light to induce more exotic order. If time permits\, I may present our ongoing efforts along this way.\n\nDetecting terahertz waves is only one half of the equation\, in the second half of the talk\, I will introduce our report of colossal THz emission from a van der Waals (vdW) ferroelectric semiconductor NbOI 2 [5]. Using THz emission spectroscopy\, we observe a THz generation efficiency that is an order of magnitude higher than that of ZnTe. We uncover the underlying generation mechanisms tied to its substantial ferroelectric polarization by investigating the dependence of THz emission on excitation wavelength\, incident polarization and fluence. Leveraging the long-lived coherent ferron-mediated THz emission\, we further demonstrate the ultrafast coherent amplification and annihilation of the THz emission and associated coherent ferron oscillations by using an ultrafast double-pump scheme.\n\nReferences:\n\n[1] Q.
