SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NERS Colloquium: The Impact of U-M’s First Observation of DT Fusion
DESCRIPTION:Bio:\nMark Chadwick is the Associate Laboratory Director for Los Alamos’ Simulation\, Computing & Theory (ALDSCT) directorate\, advancing the high-performance computing\, algorithms\, and theoretical science that underpin stockpile modernization and broader national security missions and AI and quantum discovery science. He previously served as interim Los Alamos Deputy Director for Science\, Technology & Engineering and as chief scientist/operating officer for Weapons Physics. He also served as program director for National Nuclear Security Administration experimental science programs and as division leader for simulation codes in ALDX.  Chadwick has led the US nuclear data evaluation collaboration Evaluated Nuclear Data Files (ENDF) for almost three decades\, creating the world’s highest-fidelity databases used worldwide in radiation transport codes\, including the Laboratory’s Monte Carlo N-Particle code. Chadwick is an APS\, ANS and LANL Fellow. He has published articles on technical fission and fusion history as well as in nuclear science.\n\nAbstract :\nI describe the history of fusion\, from a crucial breakthrough at Michigan in 1938 (that had been forgotten) through Los Alamos’s pioneering fusion measurements in the 1940s-1950s\, to the modern quest for controlled fusion energy. I will describe how UM’s first observation of DT fusion helped launch Oppenheimer and Teller’s drive for harnessing fusion.  I will also explain how DT fusion created 10^67 J of energy 13.8 billion years ago. \n\nThe NERS Colloquia Series invites leading researchers\, industry experts\, and thought leaders from across the nuclear engineering and radiological sciences community to share their insights with students\, faculty\, and guests. Covering a wide range of topics—from cutting-edge research and emerging technologies to policy\, education\, and professional development—the weekly talks offer an opportunity to explore current issues and innovations shaping the future of the field.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Revolutionary Paine: Andy Murphy Student-Curated Class Exhibit Common Sense
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Paine’s “Common Sense” was one of the most influential works of the American Revolution. The first edition was published on January 10\, 1776\, with an initial print run of just 1\,000 copies\; but within weeks demand soared. The students of Andy Murphy’s POLISCI 495 course co-curated the exhibition “Revolutionary Paine” to document the whirlwind caused by its publication. On view at the Clements January 16-May 8\, weekdays from 12-4 pm.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Settlement Organization and Interaction in the Upper Belize River Valley: The View from Ek Tzul
DESCRIPTION:Decades of settlement survey in the upper Belize River Valley of western Belize have revealed a multi-tier site hierarchy of ruling elites\, intermediate elites\, and commoners of varying status. The large temples at the polity capitals have drawn archaeological attention since the early 20th century resulting in a wealth of knowledge on how the ruling elites of ancient Maya society lived. Yet comparatively little work has examined how intermediate elites\, those who occupy the middle zone between the rulers and the commoners\, functioned and the strategies they employed to retain favor with both their overlords and supporters. Excavations and survey over the last four years at the previously unrecorded secondary center of Ek Tzul attempt to answer these questions. The result is a better understanding of how the ancient Maya of the upper Belize Valley interacted at both the local and regional level and how the intermediate elites of Ek Tzul mediated these interactions.
