IAS/ School of Science Joint Lecture - Drag on a Penetrable Disk in a Superfluid
Abstract The motion of a body through a superfluid can generate phenomena distinct from a normal viscous fluid. This includes the absence of drag below a critical body speed with the shedding of quantized vortices and non-zero drag above this speed. In this talk, the speaker will investigate…

Department of Mathematics - Seminar on PDE - Leapfrogging for Euler equations
We consider the Euler equations for incompressible fluids in 3-dimension. A classical question that goes back to Helmholtz is to describe the evolution of vorticities with a high concentration around a curve.

OCES Departmental Seminar: Mechanistic dissection of alga recognition and uptake in coral-algal endosymbiosis
Corals form an endosymbiotic relationship with the dinoflagellate algae Symbiodiniaceae, but ocean warming can trigger alga loss, coral bleaching and death, and the degradation of ecosystems.
