Carsten van de Bruck, Professor, University of Sheffield

This Friday the 9th of May in the MaEcovo journal club we will be discussing a paper by Rabosky et al. (2013): "Rates of speciation and morphological evolution are correlated across the largest vertebrate radiation"

Guest lecture by Professor Trond Ulven, Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy, University of Southern Denmark, Odense.

This week we will discuss a paper entitled "On the Coyne and Orr-igin of species: effects of intrinsic postzygotic isolation, ecological differentiation, X-Chromosome size, and symapatry on Drosophila speciation" by Turelli and co-authors from the latest issue of Evolution.

The Rosseland Lecture is held annually by the Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics of the University of Oslo in memory of Norway’s foremost astrophysicist, and founder of our institute, Professor Svein Rosseland (1894 – 1985). The Rosseland Lecturers are internationally renowned, outstanding astrophysicists. The Rosseland Lectures hold a semi-popular level and are open for all.

Roberto Conti (Sapienza Università di Roma) will give a talk with title:  Asymptotic morphisms in local quantum physics and study of some models

Abstract:

 We discuss a notion of asymptotic morphisms that is suitable for a description of superselection sectors of a scaling limit theory. In some models, this leads to interesting questions about the explicit form of certain modular operators. (This talk is based on joint work with D. Guido and G. Morsella).

A collection of recent CEES publications

Welcome to the Abel Symposium 2014 in Lofoten. The symposium will bring researchers together to discuss statistical analysis for high-dimensional data.

[This is a closed event by invitation only, but a proceedings will be published by Springer (linked here).]

Paul Krühner (UiO) holder et seminar med tittelen: Optimal bounds for SDE's with measurable drift coefficient

Olav Syljuåsen, UiO

Quantum mechanics predicts that a particle in a periodic potential will oscillate when a constant force acts on it. The oscillation pattern is rather unusual from a classical point of view as it is the external force which determines its frequency and amplitude. Such Bloch oscillations were for a long time controversial, and it took about sixty years until they were finally observed in semiconductor superlattices.  In this talk I will discuss the possibility of observing Bloch oscillations in magnetic materials. In particular I will focus on neutron signatures of Bloch oscillations in one-dimensional anisotropic ferromagnets.
