| Event Location: TRIUMF MOB Conference Room - 4004 Wesbrook Mall | Speaker: Gareth Smith, Departmental Defense
Abstract:
Antihydrogen, the bound state of an antiproton and a positron, is an ideal system for testing fundamental symmetries between matter and antimatter. The Antihydrogen Laser PHysics Apparatus (ALPHA) at CERN has a proven history of producing and trapping antihydrogen atoms, with many precision tests of charge-parity-time (CPT) symmetry. The new ALPHA-g apparatus extends this program to a test of gravity, directly probing the applicability of the weak equivalence principle (WEP) to an antimatter system for the first time.

| Event Location: BRIM 311 | Speaker: Mingxuan Fu
Multipolar moments embedded in a metallic setting paves a new route to extend the landscape of novel quantum phenomena beyond the spin-only paradigm [1]. A model material platform for exploring multipolar physics is the cubic heavy-fermion system PrTr_2Al_20 (Tr = Ti, V). This system features a nonmagnetic ground state in which the magnetic dipolar moment (spin) is absent, but higher-rank multipolar moments (quadrupoles and octupoles) are active [2].
