Webinars

In this thought-provoking webinar, Senior Applications Engineer John Screech will discuss how vacuum enables physics research from quantum computing, to fusion, to exploring the mysteries of the universe. You’ll understand why ultralow-pressure environments directly impact the success of your experiments and learn how to create them. You’ll learn the fundamentals of vacuum, and we’ll dive into the latest techniques and technologies for creating and maintaining UHV and XHV.

Discover how deep learning is reshaping X-ray crystallography—reducing the data needed by up to 90% and accelerating discoveries in materials and drug design. Join our webinar to explore this groundbreaking technology and unlock faster, more accurate structure solutions.

In this webinar, you will learn about: The challenges associated with sideband measurements, injection locking, and stabilization; The significance of pulsed measurements for applications like quantum non-demolition measurements and hybrid quantum systems; Harnessing the capabilities of digital lock-in amplifiers to implement these techniques with a single instrument.

During the webinar, you will get an idea of how you can formulate the equations you would like to solve. We will emphasize on keeping your model simple and manageable, yet complex enough to be relevant. Among the covered examples is the classical convection-diffusion equation.

Choosing the right cryostat can be a challenge, particularly when considering your long-term needs and budgetary requirements. This webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of the key factors to consider when evaluating cryostats for a research lab.

Imagine a future with plentiful clean-energy harvesting to phase out fossil fuels, chemical manufacturing that does not emit harmful pollutants or produce wasteful byproducts, point-of-care diagnostics and sensors, and computers that operate at light speed and consume little energy. Advances in nanophotonics are poised to usher in that future. In this webinar, we describe the underlying physics and several emerging applications. Originally aired May 2024.

This webinar will provide an overview of El Niño and La Niña and their global impacts. We will review the strong El Niño of 2023–24 and the current forecast for the rest of 2024. We will also cover what is understood about ENSO and global warming. Originally aired April 2024.

Stochastic models are ubiquitous in nature. They are applicable to the diffusion of molecules (which, when combined with Albert Einstein’s theory, provided the first proof for the atomistic nature of matter), the way through which random mutations drive evolutionary dynamics, and more…Watch the video to learn more!

Using only lasers, this research group has accelerated electrons to 5 GeV. The acceleration, which takes place over only 20 cm, is approximately 20% of the acceleration achievable at the Stanford Linear Accelerator over 3 km…Watch the video to learn more! Originally aired October 2023.

A recently uncovered cache of materials that neutrino pioneers Clyde Cowan and Fred Reines collected includes records, keepsakes, and images that were packed away shortly after the electron antineutrino was first discovered in the flux from a reactor in South Carolina in 1956. Notes, images, and invoices offer an intimate glimpse of the efforts that led to first direct detection of neutrinos. Originally aired July 2023.
