Unravelling electronic correlations in atomic chains with photoemission

The remarkable success of non-interacting electron models such as the Fermi liquid theory is underpinned by the reduction of Coulomb interactions via screening in many materials. The fact that electronic interactions may be strongly enhanced by confining electrons to reduced dimensions means that low dimensional materials are a fertile environment for emergent phenomena. This is particularly acute in one-dimensional (1D) or quasi-1D systems where electrons are effectively confined to move along individual chains. In this talk I will present studies of two model...

Seminar by Prof. Kedar Damle (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research), May 16th (Tue) at C209.

This is an externally organized event. For more information contact the organizers.

What do we want? Free Cookies!

When do we want it? Thursday between 16:00 and 16:03 (because there won't be any left after that)!

Join us for tea, coffee and catching up with everybody in the restaurant area on level B on the Central Building.

There will also be a short promotion by OIST students about their upcoming Science Mentoring Program with local high school students during summer break. Come listen to what they have to say and sign up if you are keen!

Kacper Zulinski, a graphic animator currently working in a prestigious 3D studio Platige Image in Warsaw, Poland is going to show us how to quickly model and render bacterial cells using Maya and Redshift software. He will demonstrate the modelling process live during his presentation and also explain how modelling parameters will affect subsequent render.

Speaker: Alexander (Sasha) Mikheyev

Title: Writing grants for fun and profit

Abstract: A strong record of obtaining funding is cornerstone of a competitive academic record. While you can view this fact as just one more thing to stress you out, writing grants can be a useful, and even fun exercise in its own right. While writing a grant, you are forced to focusing your research question and methods, while getting free...

Come to the last Thursday teatime before the Golden week!

Talk about your awesome holiday plans and make other people jealous!
