Informal science discussions and coffee, open to the entire department.
We meet every Tuesday at 1pm, Eastern time, in the CafeCon (the conference room next to the STScI cafeteria), and also remotely using BlueJeans. We start with a talk by guest speaker for ~30 minutes, followed by paper discussion. Vote for what papers you want discussed on Benty-Fields. Sign up for e-mails by sending a […]
Title: "Towards Dark Ages with LuSEE-Night" plus "large scale isocurvature fluctuations and the Hubble tension"
Andrew Vanderberg (MIT) "Getting to Know the Neighbors: Detailed Characterization of our Nearest Planetary Systems"
15-20 min long talks on astronomy-related papers, projects, ideas. Enjoy both Astronomy and Coffee (please bring your own mugs). If you have new results, ideas or want to discuss an interesting paper from arXiv, we encourage you to present. Spring 2024 schedule

Title: Exploring boosted Higgs-to-bb decays Abstract: In this seminar, we will explore the techniques used to observe the Higgs boson decay to bottom quarks at the Large Hadron Collider. Emphasis will be placed on the Lorentz boosted regime and heavy-flavour tagging, which help reduce the overwhelming Standard Model background. We will also present a few measurements […]
