Estudantes do ensino secundário em todo o mundo são convidados a passar um dia nos institutos e universidades mais próximas, experimentando a vida na investigação de ponta. As Masterclasses Internacionais em Física de Partículas dão aos estudantes a oportunidade de serem físicos de partículas por um dia.

Abstract: We explicitly show how to carry out explicit analytical computations in random matrix theory, emphasizing the relevance of orthogonal polynomials. Explicit examples will be given and we will also comment on the history and applications of the subject.

We will give a simple introduction to random matrix theory. We will start by presenting some of the motivations for the study of random matrices, giving some historical perspective on the subject while also highlighting some of the more prevalent current applications. The definition of a random matrix ensemble will be given and its implications analyzed by showing how to work with the joint probability distribution function of the eigenvalues.

Patchy colloids are particles with a solid core and a discrete number of interaction sites. In this seminar I will present simulation and theoretical results of a model binary mixture of patchy colloids under gravity. By tuning the buoyant masses of the colloids we can control the sequence of fluid stacks formed in sedimentation-diffusion-equilibrium. We find complex stacking sequences with up to four layers and reentrant network formation.

Durante o mês de fevereiro, visite o CCVL e entre em equilíbrio com a ciência.
