Europe/Rome ABSTRACT: Recently, the study of chaos in quantum systems has been revitalized due to what is now known as the bound to chaos. This result limits the rate of growth of chaos at low temperatures due to quantum effects. In this talk, I will present ongoing work with Jorge Kurchan concerning the bound in the context of classical and quantum free dynamics on curved manifolds. Thanks to the curvature, such models display chaotic dynamics up to low temperatures, due to the absence of any localizing potentia Remarkably, this chaotic behaviour is limited by the quantum effects of the curvature itself. The talk aims to discuss the different ways in which such quantum effects arise. As an illustrative example, I will consider the simple case of a free particle on a two-dimensional manifold, constructed by joining the surface of constant negative curvature --- a paradigmatic model of quantum chaos --- to a cylinder. The resulting phenomenology can be generalized to the case of several (constant) curvatures. The presence of a hierarchy of length scales enforces the bound to chaos up to zero temperature. Our goal is to extend this study to macroscopic models, that may be studied as free propagation on a rugged manifold in n-dimensions. Virtual ICTP pio@ictp.it

Here, I will describe optimal betting strategies that give the highest capital growth rate while keeping a certain low value of risk, that is, an optimal trade-off between the average and the fluctuations. This trade-off is also embodied in a general bound similar to thermodynamic uncertainty relations. Finally, I will discuss possible future applications in biology. This trade-off is also believed to operate in situations known generically in biology as "bet-hedging". Organisms may exchange a reduction of their present fitness for increased fitness in a possible future stressful condition. Some type of bet-hedging mechanism is believed to operate in the production of seeds by plants or in the resistance to antibiotics. Zoom Meeting ICTP pio@ictp.it

Abstract: In urban neighborhood and around industrial plants, the atmospheric dispersion of pollutants is strongly affected by the presence of buildings. They affect the mean flow field and the turbulence and these in turn will affect the concentrations levels. We describe the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics models (adapted for the atmosphere), following either an Eulerian/Eulerian approach or an hybrid Eulerian/Lagrangian formulation. The results are illustrated using measurements of the Mock Urban Setting Test (MUST) campaign performed in the USA. Using the same field campaign, we will also show how we can use data assimilation of the measurements between the buildings to improve the numerical simulation in urban environments.

Seminar Start Time: 15:00

Europe/Rome Abstract: This seminar will describe some of our efforts to understand and control the processes determining the efficiency of energy conversion systems. Specifically, the behavior of metal oxide thin films for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation will be discussed. Under PEC water oxidation conditions, many metal oxides have been shown to accumulate holes in surface states which can recombine with conduction band electrons and thus limit the performance. The nature of such surface states will be elucidated and its role in controlling water oxidation discussed. Surface state recombination can generally be mitigated through introduction of electrocatalysts on metal oxide semiconductor surfaces which generally leads to improved performance. We have found that some semiconductor/catalyst combinations result in similar or worse performance compared to the bare electrode, however. Through rigorous comparison of cyclic voltammetry, current transient and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), intensity modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS), and dual-working electrode experiments measurements, we have been able to gain significant insight into the role of the catalyst and the electron-transfer reactions at the interface on the performance of PEC water oxidation.

Abstract: It has been 10 years since the ash cloud from the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull caused unprecedented disruption to air traffic across Europe. During this event, the London Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC), hosted by the UK Met Office, provided advice and guidance on the expected location of volcanic ash in the atmosphere using observations and the atmospheric dispersion model NAME (Numerical Atmospheric-Dispersion Modelling Environment). Rapid changes in regulatory response and procedures during the eruption introduced the requirement to also provide forecasts of ash concentrations, representing a step-change in the level of interrogation of the dispersion model output. Although disruptive, the longevity of the event afforded the scientific community the opportunity to observe and extensively study the transport and dispersion of a volcanic ash cloud. I will discuss what we learnt from that event and the developments we have made to NAME in the decade since the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull. Much of the focus has been on improving the representation of the eruption source parameters which are subject to considerable uncertainty. This has included the application of Bayesian methods to reconstructing the source from satellite data and the use of integral plume models to determine the mass emission rate and other properties of the eruption column. Since the downwind spread of ash is sensitive to the distribution of ash particle size and density, considerable effort has also been made to improve their representation in NAME including secondary effects such as aggregation and particle shape. I will illustrate the effect of these and other changes to NAME. Zoom Meeting ICTP pio@ictp.it

Europe/Rome Topology plays a key role in condensed matter physics, underlying much of our understanding of equilibrium matter in terms of defects in ordered media and topologically protected states. In active systems – collections of entities that consume energy to generate their own motion and forces – topological phenomena can take on new and surprising roles. I will describe some of these behaviors focusing on liquid-crystalline active matter in two dimensions, specifically active nematic liquid crystals, where defects become motile particles, drive spatio-temporally chaotic flows, and can themselves organize in emergent ordered states.

Abstract: J-stability plays an important role in K-stability and deeply related to the existence of a stationary solution of J-flow. Strikingly, G. Chen, Datar Pingali and J. Song proved Lejmi-Szekelyhidi conjecture, uniform J-stability and J-positivity are equivalent, by differential geometric arguments recently. However, this fact has not been proved in algebro-geometric way before. In this talk, I would like to explain a decomposition formula of non-Archimedean J-functional, the (n+1)-dimensional intersection number into n-dimensional intersection numbers and its applications to prove the conjecture for singular algebraic surfaces and to show that there exists a J-stable but not uniformly J-stable variety.

Abstract: Wind energy is one of the key drivers of energy transition, however the flow of investments into this industry is hampered by the uncertainty of the future revenues, arising from the natural variability of the resource, the impact of climate change on wind potential and future electricity prices, and the policy risks. In this article we quantify the uncertainty of the net present value of standardized wind farms in European countries and evaluate the level and cost of support mechanisms needed to guarantee the profitability of the wind fleet under present and future climate. To this end, we build a localized model for wind power output and a country-level model for electricity demand and prices taking into account hourly variation of wind, load and prices, using reanalysis data, climate projections and Integrated Assessment Model (IAM) scenarios. Our methodology is general, but for specific evaluations we focus on the examples of France, Germany and Denmark. Our study reveals that support mechanisms in these countries are needed for wind energy to be profitable under current market prices and current climate. Under future climate, using several scenarios for climate change and energy transition, we also show that the evolution of both price and wind production does not allow the wind energy industry in these countries to develop in a free market environment and that support mechanisms will still be needed in future. The cost of these support mechanisms for a 15-year period is evaluated to 57–172 billion euros in France, 232–397 billion euros in Germany, and 18–50 billion euros in Denmark, depending on the scenario considered and the level of penetration of wind energy.

Abstract: The atmospheric dispersion of pollutants is one of the main phenomena that must be described to obtain an assessment of the air pollution. Among the tools that may allow this, numerical dispersion models constitute one of the main ones. They allow to reconstruct the behavior of pollutants released into the atmosphere by both human activities (transport, heating, industry) and natural phenomena (volcanoes, fires, sand storms). Pollutants are transported by wind and dispersed by turbulence, chemically transformed, deposited by surface contact or removed by rainfall: the aim of the models is to reproduce this complex phenomenology to assess air quality levels that may be harmful to human health and ecosystems. ARIANET has a more than ventennial history in both developing and using this kind of models for many applications at different scales, ranging from impact studies of local industrial pollutant sources to the development, use and maintenance of air quality forecast systems at the national scale. Aim of the seminar is to describe the various products developed and available at ARIANET, including both the Lagrangian Particle Dispersion Model SPRAY and the Eulerian Chemical Transport Model FARM widely used by many institutions in Italy and to give an overview of the many applications of these modeling tools such as in the fields of impact assessment, emergency response, odours, fires, and forecasting systems.

In this spirit many processes driven by turbulence can be successfully and efficiently modelled using stochastic approaches. Similarly, but in a wider sense, sub-grid scale dispersion and mixing processes that are not explicitly resolved by atmospheric flow simulations can be often modelled by using stochastic approaches for the considered spatial and temporal scales. I will discuss the formulation and application of simple stochastic models for the simulation of processes related to atmospheric dispersion of gases and particles, with spatial scales ranging from few meters (from an emitting local scalar source) to global.

Europe/Rome Andrea M. Ghez, professor of Physics & Astronomy and Lauren B. Leichtman & Arthur E. Levine chair in Astrophysics, is one of the world’s leading experts in observational astrophysics and heads UCLA’s Galactic Center Group. Best known for her ground-breaking work on the center of our Galaxy, which has led to the best evidence to date for the existence of supermassive black holes, she has received numerous honors and awards including the Nobel Prize in 2020, she became the fourth woman to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, sharing one half of the prize with Reinhard Genzel (the other half of the prize being awarded to Roger Penrose). The Nobel Prize was awarded to Ghez and Genzel for their Independent discovery of a supermassive compact object, now generally recognized to be a black hole, in the Milky Way's galactic center, the Crafoord Prize in Astronomy from the Royal Swedish Academy of Science (she is the first woman to receive a Crafoord prize in any field), Bakerian Medal from the Royal Society of London, a MacArthur Fellowship, election to the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society.   Her work on the orbits of stars at the center of the Milky Way has opened a new approach to studying black holes and her group is currently focused on using this approach to understand the physics of gravity near a black hole and the role that black holes plays in the formation and evolution of galaxies. Advances in high resolution imaging technology enabled Ghez’s work and her group continues to work on pushing the frontiers of these technologies forward. She serves on several leadership committees for the W. M. Keck Observatory, which hosts the largest telescopes in the world, and the future Thirty Meter Telescope. Ghez is also very committed to the communication of science to the general public and inspiring young girls into science. Her work can be found in many public outlets including TED, NOVA’s Monster of the Milky Way, Discovery’s Swallowed by a Black Hole, TED, and Griffith Observatory. Ghez earned her B.S from MIT in 1987, and her PhD from Caltech in 1992 and has been on the faculty at UCLA since 1994.
