I1.00001: Starting a Photonics Company After the Telecom Meltdown Invited Speaker: The story of Mobius Photonics, Inc. is the story of a top-notch team of physicists and engineers who saw an opportunity to leverage the enormous investments made during the telecom boom in semiconductor diodes and optical fiber and deploy them in fiber-based light sources for a manufacturing sector facing continuing cost and quality challenges. An overview of this rapidly growing industry of ``fiber lasers'' will be given, and the unique advantages and challenges of a start-up will be addressed. [Preview Abstract] |

I1.00002: Exciting Prospects and New Experiments in both High Energy and Nuclear Physics Invited Speaker: One of the most likely venues for new discoveries in particle and nuclear physics is the research program at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The first experiments there are expected to commence in about a year. An overview of the machine and the initial experimental apparatus will be given first in this talk. It will be followed by a few specific examples of physics topics that will be studied with them. These serve to highlight the physics case for this large international effort. [Preview Abstract] |
