[vip-all] Afløser på biblioteket - Substitute at the library
by Ruth Laursen 31 Jan '11

31 Jan '11

Kære alle, Som de fleste vel er bekendt med, så har Liv Vego valgt at gå på efterløn pr. 1. februar 2011. Hun havde sidste dag d. 25. januar, hvorefter jeg, på opfordring, midlertidigt er indtrådt som afløser for Liv. Jeg vil være tilstede på Liv's kontor mandag, onsdag og torsdag kl. 11-16, hvor I er velkomne til at henvende jer med bestillinger på litteratur, som I ønsker skaffet. Biblioteksmailen library(a)phys.au.dk vil fortsat blive besvaret, men I er også velkomne til at skrive til min personlige mail tli(a)phys.au.dk. Endvidere overtager jeg Liv's rolle som validator på PURE. Bemærk at deadline for inddatering er inden 1. marts 2011. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dear all, As you might know, Liv Vego has chosen to leave the institute. Her last day was 25 January 2011. I will, as her substitute, help with the library temperarily. My opening hours are: Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday 11-16. Your are very welcome to come by the library office or to send me an e-mail: library(a)phys.au.dk or tli(a)phys.au.dk. I will also be the new PURE validator. Please notice that the deadline for PURE registrations is before the 1 March 2011. Kind regards, Tine Legarth Iversen Librarian (substitute for Liv Vego) Physics and Astronomy Library Opening hours: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday: 11-16

[vip-all] AMO seminar tomorrow, Thursday
by Jacob Sherson 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Title: Dipole oriented matter: a novel ferroelectric state Speaker: David Field, IFA Time: Thursday, January 27, 15.15 to 16.00 Place: Fysisk Auditorium Abstract: Seemingly prosaic films of chemicals such as nitrous oxide or propane have been found to harbour very large spontaneous electric fields which can be greater than 10^8 V/m. I will describe how the discovery of this unexpected phenomenon took place and how we attempt to understand the nature of the new class of ferroelectric materials which these observations herald. The molecules so far identified form a diverse group of six species with dipoles lying between 0.08 Debyes and 0.5 Debyes : propane (0.08D), isopentane (0.13D), nitrous oxide (N2O: 0.167D), isoprene (0.25D), toluene (0.385D) and CF3Cl (Freon-13; 0.5D). I will concentrate on an understanding of the structure of the ferroelectric state using the measured temperature dependence of the spontaneous electric field in N2O as a diagnostic, showing that the ferroelectric state is generated through dipole alignment in the form of a single domain. The discovery of this new type of material may have wide ranging applications in device and nano-technology and also influence the electrical nature of dust in the interstellar medium. Jacob Sherson and Aurélien Dantan Coffee, tea and cake will be served at 15.05 Dr. Jacob Friis Sherson Institut for Fysik og Astronomi Aarhus Universitet Ny Munkegade 120 8000 Århus C Tel.:8942 3680

[vip-all] NYT: Internetforbindelsen lukkes ned i morgen mellem 6.30-7.30
by Ruth Laursen 26 Jan '11

26 Jan '11

Kære alle Nye oplysninger siger: Det er kun strømmen til vores krydsfelt der bliver lukket ned i morgen. Det betyder at vi ikke kan komme på nettet med vores PC, og vores telefoner virker måske heller ikke. Dørlåsene vil heller ikke virke. vh ruth ******************************* Ruth Laursen Head of Administration Department of Physics and Astronomy Ny Munkegade 120 8000 Aarhus C Denmark e-mail: ruth(a)phys.au.dk Office: 1522-212 Mobile: 2338 2335

[vip-all] Strømafbrydelse torsdag den 27.1 - Power supply cut
by Ruth Laursen 25 Jan '11

25 Jan '11

Torsdag den 27. januar fra kl. 6.30 til 7.30 slukkes for strømmen pga elomlægning. Det betyder at al internetforbindelse er lukket i det tidsrum. The main power supply to all buildings of the Department of Physics and Astronomy will be cut, on Thursday 27 January from 6.30-7.30 due to conversion work. Access to the internet will not be possible during this time. vh ruth ******************************* Ruth Laursen Head of Administration Department of Physics and Astronomy Ny Munkegade 120 8000 Aarhus C Denmark e-mail: ruth(a)phys.au.dk Office: 1522-212 Mobile: 2338 2335

[vip-all] Rejseafregninger i AURUS
by Ruth Laursen 23 Jan '11

23 Jan '11

Kære alle Instituttet har ansat studentermedhjælp Ute Laubner som fremover skal hjælpe med rejseafregninger for de forskere, der ønsker at benytte sig af denne service. I er naturligvis velkommen til selv at færdiggøre rejseafregninger i AURUS, men de af jer, der normalt vil bruge jeres sekretær til dette, skal blot aflevere til denne som I plejer. Vi har indført et system, hvor rejseafregningerne lægges til Ute, som kommer et par gange om ugen efter behov. Vi er i gang med at udarbejde en skabelon til jer med de oplysninger som I SKAL give hvis andre skal lave rejseafregningen for jer. Den kommer i form af en forside snarest.

[vip-all] AMO seminar today
by Grete Flarup 20 Jan '11

20 Jan '11

AMO seminar today, Thursday at 15.15 in Phys.Aud. Speaker:Eva Lindroth Department of Physics, Stockholm University Title: Attosecond resonance dynamics in XUV-pump IR-probe simulations Time: Thursday, January 20, 15.15 to 16.00 Place: Fysisk Auditorium Abstract: Short lived resonance states play an important role in many atomic and molecular charge changing processes. The recent advances in the generation of attosecond XUV pulses open a way to study, and perhaps control, the population and decay of these states in the time domain. We have investigated these possibilities by simulating realistic attosecond XUV-pump IR-probe experiment focused on the N=2 ionization threshold in helium. The helium atom is the simplest system where doubly excited (resonance) states occur. It can be treated with straight forward ab initio methods, but is still a decent model for full many-body systems. Jacob Sherson and Aurélien Dantan Coffee, tea and cake will be served at 15.05
