SUMMARY:Inflation is still in trouble: Probing the early universe with numerical relativity
DESCRIPTION:Joshua Shterenberg\nPh.D Candidate\nDepartment of Physics\, Princeton University\, Princeton\, NJ\nAbstract: The standard picture of modern cosmology posits inflation as the dynamical\, classical process that smooths generic fluctuations in the early universe. To analyze the effectiveness of inflation in the regime of large\, non-perturbative fluctuations\, we perform numerical relativity simulations using a custom tetrad-based formulation of the Einstein-scalar field equations with a plateau-shaped potential. Based on gauge-invariant diagnostic variables\, we find that inflation can only smooth nearly-Friedmann-Robertson-Walker initial conditions beginning at the Planck energy scale. In these simulations\, we observe that the unbounded growth of fluctuations鈥攑articularly those in gravitational shear density and curvature鈥攊s a generic effect in these models that tends to dominate over the potential energy and prevent inflation from occurring. As a result\, the parameter space of initial conditions at the Planck density that inflation can smooth must be heavily restricted\, rendering inflation a rare phenomenon.

SUMMARY:SAT Prep "Boot Camp"
DESCRIPTION:Program Description\nOnline SAT Prep Matters and SAT Boot Camp are new courses designed by Dr Mary Smyth\, a long-time SAT coach in the Midcoast. College-bound high school juniors who plan to take the SAT test will benefit from learning about the new format and updated content of the new SAT. \n鈥淚 am actually a fan of the new SAT\,鈥� says Dr. Smyth. She explained the test is shorter (2 hours 15 minutes total) and questions are individualized to each student. The digital approach allows the test to 鈥渞eact鈥� to the student鈥檚 prior answers and change the difficulty level. The reading passages are shorter and there is a combined section with both reading and grammar questions included. The test also has a visible built-in timer and a calculator and graphing program available for all the math questions. \nThe new test will require a whole new approach to studying and practicing. While there are free resources available on Khan Academy\, most students will need guidance in understanding how to approach the test. For instance\, students can attempt a math problem by using any of several techniques: graph the problem\, write out the algebra steps\, or try the answers to see which one fits. Knowing how to navigate between those options will give students more strategies and can increase their scores. \n鈥淲ith this new SAT format\, I am amazed how much teaching I can do to help students solidify knowledge they have been exposed to in high school\, 鈥� says Smyth. 鈥淪tudents have to be able to use what they have learned to solve problems. That is the name of the game in the SAT.鈥� \nDr. Mary Smyth鈥檚 SAT Boot Camp has been used successfully to prepare students to take the SAT for many years. Students attend class every day during a school vacation week and practice taking short sections of the test. Students are relaxed and well-rested\, so they are able to absorb the lessons and practice at their best. \nProgram Benefits\nUsing lessons that she writes herself\, Smyth has helped many students through their own hard work improve their SAT scores by 100-200 points. \nWho Should Enroll\nCollege-bound high school juniors who plan to take the SAT test. \nProgram Details\nInstructor\nDr. Mary Smyth \nEducation:\nA.B.

SUMMARY:The Universe Through All Senses
DESCRIPTION:The Universe Through All the Senses \nWhen asked to talk about the universe\, astronomers will describe it to you in a thousand different ways. Starting with the diverse planets of the Solar System\, charming comets\, hot stars\, and ethereal nebulae\, they鈥檒l take you on a journey all the way to galaxies billions of light-years away. Into this mix\, they will throw in a bit of mysterious dark matter\, a few black holes\, a dash of dark energy\, and finish it off with a pinch of strange elementary particles. \nHowever\, for an ordinary Earthling\, such a list of fancy terms feels just like flipping through a cookbook\, without being able to taste the individual ingredients\, let alone the finished product. That鈥檚 why we decided to serve you the universe in a completely different way 鈥� You will experience it with all your senses! \nDiscover what it feels like to touch the universe\, what a comet or cosmic space smells like\, and even how the Saturn鈥檚 moon Enceladus or the planet Mars taste like. Listen to the explosion of a supernova\, the rumbling sounds of the Sun\, and more. See the glow of auroras and vibrant nebulae. This unconventional sensory-packed show is narrated by Jack Stephens. \nTickets for planetarium programs are $7 for Adults\, $6 for 91爆料 Students/Veterans/Senior Citizens\, and $5 for children under 12.

SUMMARY:Documentary: Serf鈥檚 Up: Home & Happiness in the New Feudalism
DESCRIPTION:Serfs Up explores the meaning of 鈥渉ome鈥� in an era defined by widening inequality and unchecked greed. Set against the backdrop of 2025\, the film amplifies voices across generations 鈥� 5-year-olds\, college students\, and 90-year-old veterans鈥攅ach grappling with what it means to belong and to build a life. \nThe documentary pulls back the curtain on today鈥檚 housing landscape\, asking urgent questions: Who owns the properties that feel increasingly out of reach? Where are these landlords based? And how has an entire generation been priced out of stability? \nInterwoven with this investigation is a moving tribute to three senior military veterans\, whose stories offer deeply personal and contrasting understandings of 鈥渉ome.鈥� Spanning four generations\, Serfs Up invites viewers to reflect on ownership\, displacement\, and the enduring human need for a place to call their own.

SUMMARY:Talk - Vector-borne disease management decision-making in an uncertain information environment
DESCRIPTION:The talk will be held virtually via Zoom and in-person at 107 Norman Smith Hall\, 91爆料\, Orono. \n\nVirtual attendance:聽Complete the registration form聽for Zoom connection information\n\nSpeaker: Allison (Allie) Gardner\, Associate Professor\, 91爆料 \nDuring the early 21st century\, the number of outbreaks of infectious diseases transmitted from animals to humans has grown explosively worldwide. These emerging zoonotic diseases are integrated into landscapes managed by people and amplified in complex cycles in which pathogen transmission is intertwined with ecosystem ecology and human behavior. Many management decisions at the human-wildlife-environmental health nexus are made under conditions of both risk (i.e.\, potential for negative outcomes) and uncertainty (due to imperfect\, evolving scientific knowledge). This talk will explore the case study of tick-borne disease management in North America\, which is high-risk due to the health threat posed by disease and high-uncertainty due to lack of data and/or expert consensus about the most effective control tactics. \nAllison (Allie) Gardner is an Associate Professor at the 91爆料 studying the ecology and management of tick-borne and mosquito-borne disease. Allie has worked in disease systems including Lyme disease\, West Nile virus\, and Zika virus and has extensive experience collaborating with interdisciplinary research teams\, community scientists\, and federal and state agency partners. She has served as an Entomological Society of America Science Policy Fellow\, Chair of the 鈥淏iology\, Ecology\, and Management of Emerging Disease Vectors鈥� USDA Multistate Hatch project\, and a founding member of the New England Regional Center of Excellence in Vector-Borne Disease.

SUMMARY:Physics and Astronomy Colloquium: Sustainable\, Reliable\, and Secure AI
DESCRIPTION:The latest installment of the Colloquium Series from the Department of Physics and Astronomy is scheduled to take place on February 27 at 3:15 PM in 140 Bennett Hall. \nThe event 鈥� titled 鈥淪ustainable\, Reliable\, and Secure AI鈥� 鈥� will be presented by Ayesha Siddique\, assistant professor in the Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering at the 91爆料. \nFrom the abstract: \nApproximate computing has been widely explored as a means to improve the energy efficiency of deep neural networks (DNNs) for edge AI hardware. However\, both accurate and approximate DNNs remain inherently vulnerable to faults and adversarial attacks\, and the reliability and adversarial robustness of approximate DNNs remain largely unexplored. This gap presents an opportunity to rethink how we design sustainable and dependable AI hardware. In this seminar\, I will discuss our recent advances in post-fabrication fault mitigation methods and the principled selection of hardware approximation techniques to preserve adversarial robustness under attack. I will highlight how we leverage emerging computing paradigms\, such as explainable artificial intelligence\, neural architecture search\, moving target defense\, and neuromorphic computing\, to ensure reliability\, security\, and energy efficiency. This seminar outlines a path toward AI hardware that is not only high-performing and energy-aware but also resilient against both hardware faults and security threats. \nThis event is free and open to the public.
