SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:MIPSE Seminar | Plasma Physics Modeling and Simulations of Electric Propulsion Over the Last Two Decades at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nThe first ion engines were launched into orbit in the 1960s but it was not until the 1990s that their commercial use began in the U.S.\, followed by the first NASA flight on Deep Space 1 in 1998. Hall thrusters (HTs) followed a similarly long trajectory from the lab to deep-space flight. Since the 1970s thousands of HTs have flown in near-Earth orbit\, yet it was not until NASA’s Psyche mission in 2023 that HTs were used as primary propulsion beyond lunar orbit. Two challenges contributed to this protracted path. First\, HTs are low-thrust\, high-exhaust-speed devices that achieve large ΔVs but must operate for years in space. Flight qualification in vacuum facilities can be prohibitively costly and time-consuming. Challenges in qualifying a technology by test alone are not unique to electric propulsion (EP). Certification of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile now relies on physics-based modeling and simulations (M&S) requiring large investments. The second challenge is that investment in M&S for EP has been limited. Their inherently complex physics prohibited the advancement of first-principles M&S tools to a level that could make major impact on development. Instead\, technology advancement depended largely on empirical scaling and laboratory testing. A focused effort on physics-based M&S began in the 2000’s in the EP Group of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In this presentation I will highlight achievements made at JPL in the M&S of plasmas in EP\, and discuss their impact on development\, maturation and flight qualification of EP for NASA deep-space missions.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nDr. Ioannis (Yiangos) G. Mikellides is a Senior Research Scientist and Principal Engineer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He received his Ph.D. in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from The Ohio State University. In over three decades his theoretical investigations of applied plasma physics\, supported by extensive numerical simulation\, have spanned applications as diverse as high-pressure discharge chambers and hypersonic nozzles\, ablative thrusters\, magnetic nozzles in fusion propulsion\, MHD shocks\, rarefied EP plumes and astrophysical plasmas. He has developed OrCa2D and Hall2De\, two novel scientific plasma codes that have been supporting the qualification of hollow cathodes and HTs for NASA’s EP missions since he joined JPL in 2003. Hall2De has also been licensed to various institutions of government\, academia and the private sector nationwide. His theoretical work has led to notable advances in our understanding of EP plasmas such as the prediction of ion acoustic turbulence in cathode discharges and the development of the first principles of magnetic shielding in HTs. He has published more than 60 refereed articles in aerospace engineering\, applied physics\, planetary/space sciences and astrophysics journals\, and co-authored the 2023 book “Fundamentals of Electric Propulsion”. He is a Fellow of the AIAA and the recipient of multiple recognitions including the NASA Exceptional Engineering Achievement Medal and the JPL Lew Allen and Edward Stone Awards.\n\nThe seminar will be conducted in person\, with livestream in Zoom.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Algebraic Geometry seminar: Hodge theory of secant varieties of curves
DESCRIPTION:Secant varieties are classical objects in algebraic geometry\, with many of their properties\, such as their defining equations and singularities\, being of interest for a very long time. Recently there has been interest in the Hodge theory of these varieties. I will review some classical Hodge theory and briefly explain how these ideas lift to a suitable derived category. We will apply some of the well-known theorems in this setting to make explicit Hodge theoretic computations for higher secant varieties of curves. In particular I will compute their intersection cohomology and describe the so-called trivial Hodge module. We will then zoom in on the special case of secant varieties of rational normal curves. Here we are able to exploit the defining equations to describe the nearby and vanishing cycle sheaves on the secant varieties. This talk is based on the work in my PhD thesis.

SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:2026 Press Play: Activision Blizzard New Grad Rotation Program
DESCRIPTION:Activision Blizzard is looking for its next cohort of Rotation Managers to join the company Fall 2026. Come learn about the program and participate in live Q&amp\;A with the Recruiters and Program Manager. Rotation Program Overview:Activision Blizzard's Rotation Manager program is a 2-year program that rotates individuals across 3 teams for 8 months at a time. It is an accelerateddevelopment initiative designed to provide participants with unparalleledopportunities for growth\, leadership\, and professional development.   Rotation participants rotate through business-critical roles and functions across the company's various teams and studios. They workon company initiatives that have a direct impact on the bottom line and future success\, while developing connectivity across groups to enable morecommunication\, knowledge sharing\, and collaboration. The program includes hands-on experience\, mentorship\, and training. Participants are part of a supportive and inclusive community committed to their success\, with regular check-ins\, feedback sessions\, and networking opportunities to ensure they have the resources needed to thrive.  Some of the programmatic features include a 1-week new hire welcome week that provides a deep dive into the gaming industry and company\; development weeks atthe end of each rotation that include report outs around best practices\,case study competitions\, and cohort bonding\; and regular feedback.  Rotation Program Participant Requirements:\nCurrently enrolled in a Master's or PhD program\nGraduating May/June 2026\n3+ years of experience\nAvailable to start program September 7\, 2026\nOpen to working in-person out of Los Angeles or Irvine\, CA (domestic relocation provided if needed)\n
