Past Seminars



High Energy Theory Seminar: Love numbers for astrophysical compact objects in theories beyond General Relativity

Kent Yagi (University of Virginia)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

One can probe nuclear physics with gravitational waves from a binary neutron star merger through measurements of a tidal Love number. The latter is a linear response coefficient of the stellar quadrupole moment…



Astrophysics Seminar: Why a tiny neutrino particle inspired me to simulate and reconstruct the entire Universe

Adrian Bayer (Flatiron)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

Massive neutrinos suppress the growth of cosmic structure on small, non-linear scales, making it crucial to go beyond a traditional power spectrum analysis to tighten constraints on their mass.


High Energy Theory Seminar: Free-falling in Quantum Spacetime

Maulik Parikh (Arizona State University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Gravity is usually regarded classically, obeying Newton's law or Einstein's equations. Here I will show that, when the gravitational field is treated quantum-mechanically, the classical trajectories of freely falling…



Astrophysics Seminar: "TBA"

Thavisha Dharmawardena (NYU)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19


High Energy Theory Seminar: Universal Bounds in interface conformal field theories

Andreas Karch (UT Austin)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Critical phenomena in the presence of interfaces provide a much richer arena than their more studied cousin of boundary critical phenomena. In this talk, I'll review certain observables that are new and unique…
