AI for Humans - #1. Multiple Elephants in the RoomAI for Humans - #1. Multiple Elephants in the Room
Friday, September 29, 2023 - 12:00 pm
In September the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning will launch “AI for Humans,” a monthly forum - equal parts presentation & open conversation - that invites faculty to examine how we are navigating life & work & learning with AI. The aim for the first session is to consider the broader context(s) in which our ChatGPT challenges have arisen and will play out. In October the topic will be more narrowly focused on "the art of the prompt", and in November the topic will turn to matters of “security, policy, and academic ethics.”

It is designed to use the lens of being a bystander as the primary frame of reference. This training is guided by the question “What does the participant(s) need to know in order to increase the likelihood of effective proactive and reactive bystander interventions in response to power-based interpersonal violence?” This Green Dot Bystander Workshop is open to any students.

Gail Lehr & Bell Bottom BluesGail Lehr & Bell Bottom Blues
Monday, September 25, 2023 - 3:30 pm
Gail Lehr worked for many years as the Office Manager in the Department of Languages & Literatures and in the Department of English. But prior to starting her career, she had been a girl growing up in Janesville in the 1970s during a tumultuous era when youth culture had disrupted conventions and redefined what growing up meant. It was an exciting and confusing time, and Lehr captures it by documenting her 14th summer, a time when she was still a girl but experiencing all the complexities of adult life.
Join us for a presentation from her memoir, Bell Bottom Blues.

Physics Colloquium: Probing Collective Quantum Effects of Interacting Spins on the Honeycomb LatticePhysics Colloquium: Probing Collective Quantum Effects of Interacting Spins on the Honeycomb Lattice
Wednesday, September 27, 2023 - 4:00 pm
Dr. Andrew Christianson from Oak Ridge National Laboratory will present on probing collective quantum effects of interacting spins on the honeycomb lattice. In quantum magnetism, elegantly simple model systems exhibit rich behavior that enables the testing of fundamental ideas which in turn serve as the basis for understanding and identifying more complex behavior. This talk will focus on the physics of the honeycomb lattice Heisenberg model as probed experimentally by neutron scattering methods. The honeycomb lattice Heisenberg model is uncomplicated: only nearest neighbor Heisenberg interactions are considered; there is no frustration, and the ground state at T=0 is the Néel state. Inelastic neutron scattering measurements reveal that the low energy magnetic excitation spectrum consists of conventional spin waves and an unusually sharp feature within a broad continuum. The broad continuum corresponds to a two-magnon contribution while the sharp feature within this continuum is identified as a Van Hove singularity in the joint density of states. We discuss how quantum effects renormalize the single-magnon and multimagnon excitations and how this renormalization can be tuned and ultimately driven to the classical limit by applying a magnetic field. From a more general perspective, this work demonstrates that structures within magnetic continua can occur over a wide experimental parameter space and can be used as a reliable means of identifying quantum phenomena.
