We are fortunate to have Benjamin Wandelt from Sorbonne University visiting to present a special seminar on "AI-assisted discovery in cosmological physics." Professor Benjamin D. Wandelt obtained a Ph.D. in astrophysics from Imperial College, London. After research positions at the Niels Bohr Institute and Princeton University, and tenure at Illinois, he is now a Professor at […]
Department-wide colloquium Speaker: Alex Lupsasca (Vanderbilt) Title: "The Black Hole Photon Ring" Abstract: What does a black hole look like? The first images of the supermassive black hole M87* display a bright ring encircling the event horizon, which appears as a dark patch in its surrounding emission. But Einstein's theory of general relativity predicts that within this […]

Michael Fall (JHU) JHU/STScI CAS Wine and Cheese Seminars take place in Bloomberg 462 every Monday at 3:30 pm Eastern. Each week, there will be either one speaker, giving an hour-long presentation (50+10), or two speakers, each giving a half hour (25+5) presentation. Hour-long speakers will be invited by the committee, and the half-hour speakers […]
Informal science discussions and coffee, open to the entire department.
Speaker: David Weld of UCSB Location: Bloomberg 462 Title: Probing quantum dynamics with strongly driven ultracold atoms Abstract: Degenerate gases in modulated optical potentials are a flexible testbed for the experimental study of quantum matter driven far from equilibrium. I will present results from a sequence of recent experiments in this area, on topics ranging from […]

Planets form from disks of dust and gas surrounding young stars. As they grow, these new planets inherit their chemical composition from the surrounding material and then sculpt it through gravitational interactions to form gaps and other asymmetric structures. In the last decade, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has revolutionized our ability to study planet formation, allowing us to examine this process in high spatial and spectral resolution. I will present highlights from ongoing work using ALMA and other […]
