The latest CU Caf茅 seminar series will feature Jim Gates,听professor at the University of Maryland, College Park, on Wednesday, Feb. 1, from 4 to 5 p.m.
Gates听was the first to defend a PhD thesis on supersymmetry from MIT. Since then, he has continued to liven the conversation about theoretical physics and the inner workings of the universe in every setting he enters. Perhaps most commonly known for his thoughts on string theory (see 听or this ),听Gates also works to make science relevant and relatable to the general public, particularly our nation鈥檚 children.
The title of Gate's upcoming talk听"The 1,358,954,496 Matrix Elements to Get From SUSY Diff EQ鈥檚 to Pictures, Codes, Card Games, Music, Computers, and Back Again" will discuss听a recent derivation of a supersymmetrical QM representation spectrum that took some surprising twists and turns along the way.听
