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 […]
Speaker: William D. Ratcliff of NIST Title: "Applications of Artificial Intelligence to Neutron Scattering” Abstract: Neutron scattering is a versatile technique for studying the structure and dynamics of materials. Unfortunately, there are a limited number of neutron sources available in the world to perform scientific experiments. In this talk, I will discuss the use of […]
Title: Generative transformers and how to evaluate them Abstract: With the increase in luminosity and detector granularity, simulation will be a significant computational challenge in the upcoming high-luminosity era of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). To tackle this, I present developments in graph- and attention-based machine learning (ML) models for generating jets at the LHC using […]

Department-wide colloquium Speaker: Stephen Taylor (Vanderbilt) Title: The Road Ahead For Nanohertz-frequency Gravitational-wave Astrophysics Abstract: The landscape of gravitational-wave astrophysics was recently broadened to encompass the nanohertz-frequency band, where NANOGrav and other pulsar-timing arrays found the tell-tale signature of a stochastic all-sky background of gravitational waves. With this evidence came spectral information that yields insights […]
