MPI StuttgartOrganizer Faculty of PhysicsContact Abstract Show full text abstract about The realization of new quantum effects in materials strongly...» The realization of new quantum effects in materials strongly depends on the discovery of compounds that can exhibit these effects. For example, although first predictions were made in the 70s, the field of topological insulators only really grew after topological materials were discovered that could be studied. In order to create new materials that exhibit new and exotic physical properties, knowledge about the periodic table and chemical concepts is extremely useful. In this talk, I will introduce some basic chemical concepts and show how they can be used as a guide to develop new superconductors, 3D Dirac semimetals and two-dimensional magnets -

Bi directional communication of melanoma with the micro environment

Tel Aviv UniversityOrganizer Department of Immunology and Regenerative BiologyContact Abstract Show full text abstract about Melanoma originates in the epidermis and becomes metastatic ...» Melanoma originates in the epidermis and becomes metastatic after invasion into the dermis. This radial to vertical growth transition, is crucial for melanoma metastatic stage, yet the triggers of this transition remain elusive. We demonstrated that the microenvironment drives melanoma metastasis independently of mutation acquisition. By examining changes in microenvironment that occur during melanoma radial growth, we found that direct contact of melanoma cells with the remote epidermal layer triggers vertical invasion via Notch signaling activation. Moreover, we show that melanoma cells directly affect the formation of the dermal tumor niche by microRNA trafficking before invasion. -

“Phenomenology of relaxion-Higgs mixing”

Weizmann InstituteOrganizer Department of Particle Physics and AstrophysicsHomepage Contact Abstract Show full text abstract about We show that the relaxion generically stops its rolling at a...» We show that the relaxion generically stops its rolling at a point that breaks CP leading to relaxion-Higgs mixing. This opens the door to a variety of observational probes since the possible relaxion mass span a broad range from sub-eV to GeV scale. We derive constraints from current experiments (fifth force, astrophysical and cosmological probes, beam dump, flavour, LEP and LHC) and present projections from future experiments such as NA62, SHiP and PIXIE. We find that a large region of the parameter space is already under the experimental scrutiny. All the experimental constraints we derive are equally applicable for general Higgs portal models. On the theoretical side we present a new bound on the back-reaction scale, Lambda^4_{br} < m_h^2 v^2. In addition, we show that simple multiaxion (clockwork) UV completions, suffer from a mild fine tuning problem, which increases with the number of sites. These results favour a cut-off scale lower than the existing theoretical bounds.
