Title:
A new paradox in classical electrodynamics
Title in Persian:
پارادوکس جدید در الکترودینامیک کلاسیک
Abstract:
In this talk, after reviewing some apparently paradoxical aspects of classical electrodynamics and their resolutions, I will introduce a new paradox concerning the energy conservation in classical electrodynamics which doesn't seem to be just an apparent one. Indeed, it seems that one can find neither a resolution inside the theory nor by delivering the problem to more fundamental theories like quantum theory and QFT. Calculations for various arrangements are done via CST, and also one arrangement is designed so that analytical solutions are possible. Also, all discerned loopholes are lifted and, in fact, the paradox appears to be dramatically serious. Finally, some possible origins of the appearance of such paradoxes are discussed and we argue that no one of them merit to resolve the paradox as they seem at first glance. Therefore, our suggestion is that in a situation where one decides to elicit surplus energy out of the above-mentioned arrangements in a laboratory, some "technical limitations" can arise and these limitations are so fundamental to put new rules for defining the validity region of the theory of electrodynamics. Obviously if there appears no fundamental limitation, then it means that we have found a perpetual source (or even sink) of energy!

Title:
The Pressure Profile Simulations and Heat-Load Study in the Vacuum System Design for Iranian Light Source Facility (ILSF)
Title in Persian:
شبیه سازی پروفایل فشار و بررسی بار حرارتی در طراحی سیستم خلاء چشمه نور ایران
Abstract:
In the process of designing the vacuum system for a synchrotron light source, it is essential to accurately estimate the pressure profile in the vacuum chambers. This is where simulation software plays a critical role. Among the various options available, Molflow and Synrad are standout programs widely used for this purpose. These software have also been used in the vacuum system design of ILSF, and will be showcased in detail in this presentation.
Another crucial consideration in designing the vacuum system is to handle the radiated power generated in dipole magnets and Insertion Devices (IDs). In this case, the photon absorbers are used to protect the vacuum equipment from the radiated power. As this photon absorber receives a high amount of power, several optimizations must be performed in their design to reduce the thermal stress and increase their operation lifetime. These optimizations will be achieved through finite element analysis, a topic that will be thoroughly discussed in this lecture.

Induced gravitational waves from non-attractor inflation and NANOGrav data
دکتر امین نصیری
دانشکده فیزیک، دانشگاه صنعتی خواجه نصیر
چکیده: در این سخنرانی در مورد امواج گرانشی حاصل از تورم غیر جاذب صحبت خواهم کرد. به این منظور ابتدا مرور مختصری بر تورم و تورم غیر جاذب خواهم داشت. در ادامه در مورد آرایه زمان سنجی تپ اخترها به عنوان آشکارسازی برای امواج گرانشی صحبت خواهم کرد. در پایان در مورد پیش بینی تورم غیر جاذب در مورد امواج گرانشی صحبت کرده و نتایج را با داده های نانوگرو مقایسه خواهم کرد.
Abstract: In this talk I will talk about the induced gravitational waves from non-attractor inflation. To this end firstly, I will give a brief review about inflation and the non- attractor inflation. Then I will talk about the pulsar timing arrays as a detector of gravitational waves. Finally I will proceed with prediction of non-attractor inflation for the induced gravitational waves and compare the results with the data of NANOGrav.
