F-DTP-1 : Theoretical Physics III
- Mark Walton (University of Lethbridge)
The flat space limit of the AdS/CFT correspondence allows to relate S-matrix elements of flat space scattering to CFT correlation functions. In this talk I will discuss this construction and its implications for the case of Quantum Electrodynamics.
To obtain the precise dictionary between CFT operators and the S-matrix, one reconstructs the Maxwell field close to the center of AdS in terms of...
Thermoelectric materials can convert waste energy back to useful electricity and hence, can significantly contribute to the generation of clean energy. However, thermoelectric materials are currently limited by high cost and low efficiencies. The search for high-efficient thermoelectric materials is hindered by the interrelated electrical and thermal transport properties. High-throughput...
