Large-scale Electricity Storage
/ Llewellyn Smith, Chris (speaker) (Oxford University)
Electricity will meet an increasing fraction of the world’s growing energy needs as fossil fuels are phased out. In many countries, most will be provided by wind and solar. To match wind and solar, which are volatile, with demand, which is variable, they must be complemented by using wind and solar generated electricity that has been stored when there is an excess, and/or supply from large-scale flexible low-carbon sources, of which there are very few.

On the Origin of Time
/ Hertog, Thomas (speaker) (KU Leuven)
Perhaps the biggest question Stephen Hawking tried to answer in his extraordinary career was how the universe could have created conditions so perfectly hospitable to life.Pondering this mystery led him to study its big bang origin, but his early work ran into a crisis when the math predicted many big bangs producing many universes, most far too bizarre to harbor life.Holed up in theoretical physics departments across the globe, Hawking and I worked shoulder to shoulder for twenty years, to develop a novel quantum framework for early universe cosmology that could account for the emergence of life. At the heart of our cosmogony lies a theory of the beginning that predicts that time and indeed physics itself fade away back into the big bang.In this colloquium I recount our quest to get a grips on the origin of time, and the bold new take on some of the universe’s fundamentals we were led to. Short bio: Thomas Hertog is a theoretical cosmologist at the KU Leuven. [...]

Quantum matter and clock: from emergent phenomena to fundamental physics
/ Ye, Jun (speaker) (University of Colorado, Boulder)
Precise quantum state engineering, many-body physics, and innovative laser technology are revolutionizing the performance of atomic clocks and metrology, providing opportunities to explore emerging phenomena and probe fundamental physics. Recent advances include precise control of many-body interactions to achieve high accuracy, measurement of gravitation time dilation across a few hundred micrometers, and employment of spin squeezing for clock comparison..

Long baseline atom interferometry
/ Kasevich, Mark (speaker) (Stanford University)
Recent advances in methods to coherently manipulate atomic de Broglie waves have enabled a new generation of atom interferometers with unique capability to address outstanding fundamental science challenges. These challenges include detection of gravitational radiation at frequencies below 1 Hz, searches for ultralight dark matter, and new tests of gravitational physics. This talk will describe recent progress in this field and outline future scientific opportunities.This is special Colloquium part of the “Terrestrial Very-Long-Baseline Atom Interferometry Workshop” (13-14 March 2023) with a short introduction to the Workshop at 08:45.The Colloquium is officially starting at 09:15..

The science and technology of DUNE
/ Terranova, Francesco (speaker) (Universita & INFN, Milano-Bicocca (IT))
The DUNE experiment is one of the most ambitious projects ever conceived in neutrino physics and is currently under construction at Fermilab and SURF. Its science addresses neutrino oscillations with a wide-band accelerator neutrino beam, together with astroparticles, multimessenger physics, and physics beyond the Standard Model using natural sources.

Prospects for Fusion Energy using Magnetic Confinement
/ Zohm, Hartmut (speaker) (Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik) ; Mumgaard, Bob (speaker) (Commonwealth Fusion System)
Nuclear Fusion is the process that powers the stars. Research to make this process accessible as an energy source on Earth by confining a hot hydrogenic plasma in magnetic fields has made substantial progress. In this talk, we will first introduce the principles of magnetic confinement and then review the present status of research. [...]
