Photothermal heating with nanoparticles: enhancing electrical conductivity in composites and water vapor formation in hydrogels
Speaker: Anton Malko Title: Heralded Photons and Stimulated Emission Using Colloidal Semiconductor Quantum Shells Abstract: Spherically shaped semiconductor nanoplatelets, called quantum shells (QSs) have recently attracted considerable attention as they exhibit strongly suppressed…
Title and abstract details are forthcoming.
Title: Understanding the emergence of microbial collective behaviors Abstract: Groups of cells of all kinds work together as part of multicellular behaviors ranging from collective migration to development. These behaviors…
Title: Topological Stars and Gravity Abstract: In this colloquium, I will discuss aspects of microscopic degrees of freedom of gravity and the physical motivation of quantum gravity. While the generic…
Title: Self-consistent predictions of nucleosynthesis and kilonovae from compact binary mergers Abstract: Understanding the details of r-process nucleosynthesis in binary neutron star mergers (BNSM) ejecta is key to interpreting kilonova…
