Astrophysics Seminar: FRB science results from CHIME

Kendrick Smith (Perimeter)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are a recently discovered, poorly understood class of transient event, and understanding their origin has become a central problem in astrophysics. I will present FRB science results…

Past Seminars



High Energy Theory Seminar: Gravitational waves with astrometry in the Gaia era

Deyan Mihaylov (Case Western Reserve University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Gravitational waves have a periodic effect on the apparent positions of stars on the sky. This effect can be quantified and ultra-precise astrometric measurements (like the ones from Gaia)…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Comments on the density matrix of the universe in two dimensional quantum cosmology

Finn Larsen (UMichigan)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

I discuss work in progress on obtaining a reasonable density matrix of the universe in two dimensional quantum cosmology. I will do so by comparing aspects of the Hilbert space of closed universes in JT gravity…

Experimental Particle Physics Seminar: Studying the Higgs boson at the LHC and beyond

Liza Brost (BNL)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2


High Energy Theory Seminar: Tidal Love numbers and Tidal anomalous dimensions

Yue-Zhou Li (Princeton)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

In this talk, I will briefly review the worldline effective field theory (EFT) formalism for classical gravitational physics. Using worldline EFT, I will provide a framework for understanding the gravitational…
