Open Quantum Systems: Dissipative Dynamics from Quarks to the Cosmos (25-3b)
Y. Akamatsu, G. Barenboim, N. Brambilla, T. Magorsch, X. Yao
The formalism of open quantum systems (OQS) describes the behavior of a quantum system that is in contact with an environment. Such systems are ubiquitous in nature, and the methods used to treat them can be used to describe the real-time evolution of strongly coupled systems.
January 12 - 16, 2026
Testing the Standard Model in Charged-Weak Decays
W. Dekens, D. Melconian, C.Y. Seng, J. Sobczyk
Measurements of neutron and nuclear beta decays as well as kaon decays allow for the extraction of the so-called Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa (CKM) elements, which govern the charged-weak interactions in the SM.
April 27 - May 29, 2026
Nuclear Hamiltonians for Advancing Nuclear Physics and Beyond
Z. Davoudi, A. Ekström, J. Holt, J. Sobzcyk, I. Tews
A sound theoretical description of nuclear forces is pivotal for understanding many important physical observables over a wide range of energy scales and densities, from few-body physics to nuclear-structure observables to astrophysical phenomena.
INTURN
Institute for Nuclear Theory Undergraduate Research Network
The Institute for Nuclear Theory (INT) at the University of Washington (UW) offers opportunities for undergraduate research in nuclear physics. This INT Undergraduate Research Network (INTURN) program hosts undergraduate students interested in pursuing research in nuclear theory and taking steps toward a career in physics.
