Detailed chrono-chemo-dynamics of seven metal-poor red giants from Kepler
Arthur Alencastro Puls
Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics, Australian National University
Resumen:
The Kepler mission has yielded a revolution in the field of GalacticArchaeology, with its photometry allowing the determination of stellar parameters with an unprecedented level of precision for Red Giant stars. Recent studies have shown that a few of these objects display conflicting characteristics in the age-metallicity space (e.g., young and metal-poor). In this project we combine asteroseismic information from solar-like oscillations, high-resolution spectroscopy and Gaia astrometry to derive stellar ages, chemical abundances and kinematics for a group of metal-poor Red Giants, and characterise them in a multidimensional chrono-chemo-dynamical space. Our results suggest that underestimated parallax errors make the effect of Gaia parallaxes more important than different choices of model grid or – in the case of stars ascending the RGB – mass-loss prescription. Two stars are identified as potentially evolved halo blue stragglers. Four objects are likely members of the accreted Milky Way halo, and their possible relationship with known accretion events, such as Gaia-Sausage and Gaia-Sequoia, is discussed.

Chemistry in optical microcavities: Spectral fluctuations and energy transport
Prof. Dr. Raphael Ribeiro
Department of Chemistry, Emory University – Atlanta, USA
Resumen:
Optical cavities and metallic nanoparticles confine electromagnetic fields and enable new pathways to control physicochemical processes via strong light-matter interactions. In fact, recent experiments have shown that photonic and plasmonic materials may induce significant and sometimes unexpected changes to physical properties and reactivity of molecular systems. In this talk, I will introduce and present the key results of our recent theoretical investigations on the effects of collective radiation-matter interactions on transport and spectral properties of disordered molecular ensembles hosted by a resonant 1D optical cavity (photonic wire). The main implications of our findings to future theoretical and experimental research will be discussed. I will show that widely employed minimal theoretical models fail to adequately describe photonic effects on the local properties of chemical systems and explain strategies to maximize the influence of optical cavities on molecular materials informed by our simulations.

What Hampers Electron Transport in Organic Crystals? A Close Look at Band-like Transport in N-type Organic Semiconductors
Prof. Dr. Emanuele Orgiu
Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique – INRS, Québec – Canada
Resumen:
Charge transport in organic semiconductors is notoriously sensitive to the presence of disorder, both intrinsic and extrinsic, especially for n-type materials. Intrinsic dynamic disorder stems from large thermal fluctuations both in intermolecular transfer integrals and (molecular) site energies in weakly interacting van der Waals solids and sources transient localization of the charge carriers. The molecular vibrations that drive transient localization typically operate at low-frequency (< a-few-hundred cm-1), which makes it difficult to assess them experimentally. Hitherto, this has prevented the identification of clear molecular design rules to control and reduce dynamic disorder. In addition, the disorder can also be extrinsic, being controlled by the chemical and physical “coupling” of the π-conjugated core to the gate dielectric. During the Colloquium, I will present a comprehensive study of charge transport in two closely related n-type molecular organic semiconductors using a combination of temperature-dependent inelastic neutron scattering and photoelectron spectroscopy corroborated by electrical measurements, theory and simulations. By doing so, unambiguous evidence is provided that ad hoc molecular design enables to free the electron charge carriers from both intrinsic and extrinsic disorder to ultimately reach band-like electron transport.

Gauge invariant quantum thermodynamics: consequences for the first law
Prof. Dr. Lucas Chibebe Céleri
Instituto de Física – UFG
Resumen:
Universality of classical thermodynamics rests on the central limit theorem, due to which measurements of thermal fluctuations are unable to reveal detailed information regarding the microscopic structure of a macroscopic body. When small systems are considered and fluctuations become important, thermodynamic quantities can be understood in the context of classical stochastic mechanics. A fundamental assumption behind thermodynamics is therefore that of coarse-graining, which stems from a substantial lack of control over all degrees of freedom. However, when quantum systems are concerned, one claims a high level of control. As a consequence, information theory plays a major role in the identification of thermodynamic functions. Here, drawing from the concept of gauge symmetry, essential in all modern physical theories, a new, intermediate, route is put forward. Working within the realm of quantum thermodynamics, a physically motivated gauge transformation, which encodes a gentle variant of coarse-graining behind thermodynamics, is explicitly constructed . As a consequence, quantum work and heat are reinterpreted, as well as the role of quantum coherence.

Virtual-Slit Focusing in a Cycloidal Mass Spectrometer – A Proof of Concept
Dr. Rafael Bento Serpa
Postdoctoral Associate | Duke University Nanomaterials and Thin Films Lab
Resumen:
This work demonstrates a novel approach to mass spectrometry using the “virtual-slit” created by the small, spatial volume from which ions are generated by localized ionization techniques (e.g., laser ionization of particles and surfaces, and spark ionization). That is, the volume in which the ions are generated creates a localized source of ions in much the same way as a slit that allows only ions from a specific cross-sectional area to pass. As demonstrated in this work, the unique perfect focusing properties of a cycloidal mass analyzer can enable the localized ionization volume to function as a virtual slit. In this manuscript, we provide a proof-of-concept (POC) demonstration of a virtual-slit cycloidal mass spectrometer (VS-CyMaS) consisting of a cycloidal mass analyzer, a laser ionization source, and an ion array detector. The laser is used to ionize either bulk or thin-film samples of Cu, Ti, Ni, and Cr. Results indicate that the width of the peaks at the detector is the same as the laser spot size, validating the concept of virtual-slit focusing. Furthermore, the material ablated with each laser pulse for Ti and Cu is estimated at 60 and 140 fg, respectively, indicating that a very low detection limit is possible given the ability of the cycloidal mass analyzer to collect ions generated by laser ionization that have wide energy and angular dispersions.

Aberration and Doppler effect on the CMB: kinematical and intrinsic contributions
Dr. Omar Roldán
Pós-doutorando – UFRJ
Resumen:
The aberration and Doppler coupling effects of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) were measured by the Planck satellite. The most straightforward interpretation leads to a direct detection of our peculiar velocity, consistent with the measurement of the well-known dipole. We show however, that in some cases a primordial dipolar potential can also produce such effects. But in addition it produces other signatures due to integrated terms which we will discuss in some detail. We also discuss how aberration measurements can be used to constraint some models which introduce super-horizon perturbations to explain the hemispherical asymmetry. This work has also been used to infer the Intrinsic Dipole. Finally we also discuss about CMB anisotropies at all orders and the non-linear Sachs-Wolfe formula.
