An accurate semiclassical method for constructing photoelectron momentum distribution for atoms and molecules in intense lasers
We propose a version of the semiclassical method based on the Herman-Kluk propagator combined with the strong-field approximation for atoms and molecules in intense lasers. Here we illustrate the application of the method for calculation of photoelectron momentum distribution (PMD) for different atoms (H, Ar, Ne, and Xe) in intense few-cycle laser pulses. We show that the constructed PMDs agree very well with the exact numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation. We further show that our method provides a clear physical interpretation for the validity of the factorization of the recollision process. In contrast to the common belief that there are two paths, so-called long and short trajectories, we found that there are typically multiple trajectories that lead to a given final momentum in the high-energy region. Accurate phases of those trajectories are needed to obtain correct interference patterns in the PMD. Our method can be used to extend current capabilities of laser-induced electron diffraction and other ultrafast imaging and strong-field spectroscopic techniques.

Online, link will be sent with registration
Presenter: Tina Huey, CETL-Faculty DevelopmentCan students meet your course objectives without reading the texts? If so, what is the value of assigning reading in your course? What learning objectives does reading help students meet? These foundational questions will frame our discussion. Techniques and tools will be introduced for:
- “Guided reading” facilitation
- Creating a reading guide
- Annotation tools (Perusall, Voicethread)
- Games, remixes, and other activities for engaging with a text
- Modeling engagement
Ideas will be shared for curating a reading list, including: alphabetic texts vs. audio and video; amount of reading assigned; and organizing access to course readings. This is an interactive session and participants are encouraged to share their experiences and questions.

Caiwen Ding, PhD
Assistant Professor, Computer Science & Engineering
University of ConnecticutDesign of Efficient and Privacy Preserving Machine Learning
The rapid deployment of machine learning system has witnessed various challenges such as high computation and privacy/security concerns. In this talk, we will first discuss the current challenges and advances in efficient machine learning. We will present several machine learning accelerations through algorithm-hardware codesign, on various computing platforms such as GPU, MCU, and ReRAM. On the other hand, Machine-Learning-As-A-Service (MLaaS) provides cloud-based tools to mitigate the cost and risk of building individual ML platforms. Privacy-preserving machine learning (PPML) serves as a good solution to protect sensitive user data. However, the introduced crypto-primitives come at extra high computation and communication overhead and potentially prohibit the machine learning popularity. We will present a systematic acceleration framework that enables low latency, high energy efficiency & accuracy, and security-guaranteed machine learning.Bio: Caiwen Ding is an assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Connecticut (UConn). He received his Ph.D. degree from Northeastern University, Boston in 2019, supervised by Prof. Yanzhi Wang. His research interests mainly include efficient machine learning system, privacy preserving machine learning. His work has been published in high-impact venues (e.g., DAC, ICCAD, ASPLOS, ISCA, MICRO, HPCA, SC, FPGA, Oakland, CCS, MLSys, CVPR, IJCAI, AAAI, ACL, ICML, EMNLP, ICRA, DATE, IEEE TCAD, IEEE TPDS). He has received the best paper nomination at DATE 2018 and DATE 2021, best paper award at the DL-Hardware Co-Design for AI Acceleration (DCAA) workshop at AAAI 2023, publicity paper at DAC 2022, and the 2021 Excellent in Teaching Award from UConn Provost. His team won first place in accuracy and fourth place overall at the 2022 TinyML Design Contest at ICCAD.

Join us for a talk in Logic Colloquium!
Andrew Tedder (Institut Wiener Kreis, Vienna)
Negated Implications in Connexive Relevant Logics
This talk investigates the odd fact that one may add connexive theses to relevant logics, giving rise to contraclassical systems, and obtain logics which are not trivial, still obey many of the desired relevance properties, and yet allow one to prove every negated implication. I’ll show why this is the case, and investigate alternative connexive relevant logics in the area that don’t have this undesirable property.
All welcome!

Normalization of the vacuum and the ultraviolet completion of Einstein gravity
Second-order-derivative plus fourth-order-derivative gravity is the ultraviolet completion of second-order-derivative quantum Einstein gravity. While it achieves renormalizability through states of negative Dirac norm, the unitarity violation that this would entail can be postponed to Planck energies. As we show in this paper the theory has a different problem, one that occurs at all energy scales, namely that the Dirac norm of the vacuum of the theory is not finite. To establish this we present a procedure for determining the norm of the vacuum in any quantum field theory. With the Dirac norm of the vacuum of the second-order-derivative plus fourth-order-derivative theory not being finite, the Feynman rules that are used to establish renormalizability are not valid, as is the assumption that the theory can be used as an effective theory at energies well below the Planck scale. This lack of finiteness is also manifested in the fact that the Minkowski path integral for the theory is divergent. Because the vacuum Dirac norm is not finite, the Hamiltonian of the theory is not Hermitian. However, it turns out to be PT-symmetric. And when one continues the theory into the complex plane and uses the PT-symmetry inner product, viz. the overlap of the left-eigenstate of the Hamiltonian with its right-eigenstate, one then finds that for the vacuum this norm is both finite and positive, the Feynman rules now are valid, the Minkowski path integral now is well behaved, and the theory now can serve as a low energy effective theory. Consequently, the theory can now be offered as a fully consistent, unitary, and renormalizable theory of quantum gravity.

Understanding the interactions between these degrees of freedom and stimuli promises advances in technology from next-generation electronics to energy storage. From coexistent emergent phases and far-from-equilibrium states to topological defects and nanomaterial morphology, nanostructural heterogeneities in space and time connected to crystal lattice commonly underpin the material behavior. Breakthrough coherent X-ray scattering techniques at novel X-ray sources capture nanoscale changes in lattice in-situ to connect them to macroscopic properties. Precise control over lattice dynamics by photoexcitations on sub-picosecond timescales sheds light on interaction between lattice dynamics and electronic order in chromium, an archetypal density wave material. In Mott insulators, nanoscale measurements reveal novel hierarchy and transition behavior of heterogeneities during metal-insulator transitions. Unique capabilities of coherent X-ray science offer us glimpses into the physics of phase transition in quantum materials and future design possibilities.

9/21 Geography Colloquium - Alexander Diener
Geography Colloquium - Alexander Diener
Thursday, September 21st, 202304:00 PM - 05:00 PM AUST 344
Dr. Alexander Diener
Associate Chair & Professor of Geography
Department of Geography and Atmospheric Science
University of KansasAbstract: Place attachment is a burgeoning field of scholarship maturing in theory, method, and application. The phenomenon obviously relates to concepts of residency, including key questions such as: Who moves and why? Who stays and why? Who returns and why? But place attachment also encompasses broader networks of place and geographic contingency, including questions such as: How do place attachments form? Why do people form attachments to some places and not others? How are concepts of home and homeland negotiated within and across varied conditions of mobility? In this talk, Alexander Diener approaches place attachment as an assemblage of materiality, performance, and narration. Rather than being static or deterministic, this model points to people’s varied capacities to make and remake place attachments, and how this shapes everyday routines (e.g. routes to work, shopping, social interactions), major life choices (e.g. places of residence, education, vacations), and identities (e.g. civic, national, religious).
Keywords: place attachment, territorialization, environmental psychology, homeland, place identity, place dependencyContact Information:Nat Trumbull
