SUMMARY:Monopoles\, Scattering\, and Generalized Symmetries
DESCRIPTION:Quantum Matter Seminar \nSpeaker: Marieke Van Beest (SCGP) \nTitle: Monopoles\, Scattering\, and Generalized Symmetries \nAbstract: In this talk\, we will discuss the problem of electrically charged\, massless fermions scattering off magnetic monopoles. The interpretation of the outgoing states has long been a puzzle\, as they can carry fractional quantum numbers. We argue that such outgoing particles live in the twisted sector of a topological co-dimension 1 surface\, which ends topologically on the monopole. This symmetry defect is often non-invertible\, and as such the outgoing radiation not only carries unconventional flavor quantum numbers\, but is often trailed by a topological field theory\, which is a new prediction.
