SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Academic Research with Google and Google Scholar
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that Google is by far the most popular search engine but most people are not aware of all the search features Google offers?\nThis workshop will improve your understanding of different search features and make you a much faster and effective researcher. Come learn about how to use Google and Google scholar for academic research\, connect Google Scholar with the U-M Library\, and fully utilize Google Images.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:CM-AMO Seminar | Development of Quantum Sensors for Precision Measurements based on Coherent Transient Effects\, Optical Lattices\, and Atom Interferometry
DESCRIPTION:We review distinctive experimental techniques that rely on coherent transient effects\, optical lattices\, and atom interferometry that have realized varied applications including precise measurements of atomic lifetimes\, masses of dielectric particles\, atomic diffusion\, centre of mass velocity\, and gravitational acceleration. We show that the two-pulse photon echo technique is capable of realizing a precise determination of the Rb 5P_{3/2} excited state lifetime. We describe time domain techniques that track the motion of dielectric microparticles confined by free space optical tweezers and measure particle masses with a sensitivity of 10^{-16} kg. We detect the motion of Rb optical lattices in a buffer gas environment to obtain comprehensive measurements of atomic diffusion. Comparisons with theoretical calculations suggest the basis for a quantum pressure sensor capable of calibrating commercial pressure gauges. We outline a frequency domain technique for the realization of state-of-the-art velocimeters using laser cooled atoms. Finally\, we review recent results from a frequency domain echo atom interferometer that uses ultracold rubidium atoms channelled into an optical lattice to realize a gravimeter. All these experiments have relied on low cost\, homebuilt\, diode laser systems.\n\n*Work supported by CFI\, OIT\, NSERC\, OCE\, The Helen Freedhoff Memorial Fund and York University

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Colloquium: Hidden Waves\, Universal Spectra: The Garrett–Munk Puzzle
DESCRIPTION:Beneath the ocean’s surface lies a field of internal waves that transports energy and contributes to mixing. Despite widely varying winds\, tides\, and topography\, many observations share a remarkably similar spectral shape\, captured by the empirical Garrett–Munk model. Why should such a complicated system admit such a simple description?\n\nThis talk explores that question through a two-dimensional model of rotating\, stratified flow. We introduce the wave-turbulence picture of resonant interactions and energy cascades\, then show how conservation laws and scaling reduce the search for a turbulent spectrum. A singularity associated with slow waves leads to a crucial role for rotation. Combining analytic arguments with numerical evidence in the weak-rotation regime yields a spectral shape consistent with Garrett–Munk. The talk is intended for a broad mathematical audience\; no background in oceanography or wave turbulence is assumed.\n\nJoint work with Michal Shavit and Oliver Bühler.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:FEAST (Faculty Engaged Arts + Student Teams) Info Session
DESCRIPTION:Interested in joining an interdisciplinary arts research team? Join the University of Michigan Arts Initiative for a FEAST Virtual Info Session to learn how students from across U-M can get involved in faculty-led arts research projects.\n\nFEAST (Faculty Engaged Arts + Student Teams) brings together undergraduate and graduate students from different disciplines to collaborate on faculty-led research projects that integrate the arts. Students contribute their own skills and perspectives to an interdisciplinary team while earning course credit for their participation.\n\nLearn more about the program and current projects recruiting here: https://arts.umich.edu/feast\n\nDuring this informal session\, we’ll introduce the FEAST program\, share current research opportunities\, explain how to apply and what participation involves\, and answer your questions about finding a project that fits your interests.
