SUMMARY:Physics Colloquium - Shuntaro Sumita
DESCRIPTION:Shuntaro Sumita\, Kyoto University\nTopological Gapless Points in Superconductors: from the viewpoint of symmetry \nTopology in quantum physics has attracted much attention in recent condensed matter physics. One famous example is the topological insulator\, which has a finite gap in its energy spectrum. On the other hand\, topological physics also appears in gapless systems\, i.e.\, topological semimetals. Following this background\, we then shed light on superconductors. Some anisotropic superconductors have gapless points in their spectrum\, called “superconducting nodes.” Therefore\, we ask the question “do nodes meet topology?” In the presentation\, I answer this question with “yes” by introducing a classification theory.

SUMMARY:Physics Colloquium - Dr. Vincent Smith
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Vincent Smith\, Honorary Research Fellow; University of Bristol (UK)\nCERN: An In-Depth Look \nCERN (near Geneva\, Switzerland) was founded in 1954 by 12 European countries and now has 22 “member states.”  I have been fortunate to have worked on experiments there since 1976\, when the new Super Proton Synchrotron was commissioned.  Since the late 1990’s\, I have been a member of the Compact Muon Solenoid collaboration\, one of the big experiments on CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. I worked initially on the development\, installation and commissioning of the Electromagnetic Calorimeter\, a system of over 75\,000 crystals of Lead Tungstate (PbWO_4) to measure the energy and direction of high energy gamma rays\, electrons and positrons from collisions in the center of the detector. This part of the detector provided the accurate measurements of the two-photon decay of the Higgs boson\, which we discovered (jointly with Atlas) in 2012.  I am one of the 2\,500 authors of the CMS Higgs discovery paper! \nSince my retirement\, I have had the benefit of an honorary position at Bristol\, which allows me to visit CERN and continue my involvement with the CMS experiment. I often serve as a “Shift Leader\,” with overall responsibility for the smooth operation of the detector during the 8-hour shifts.  My talk will begin with a little background about the foundation of CERN\, and some history of the laboratory\, but then concentrate on the results\, existing and hoped-for\, from the CMS experiment. This will include the discovery of the Higgs boson\, the search for Supersymmetry\, and perhaps Dark Matter. \nEvent flyer available here
