Professor Leo Stein, University of Mississippi at Oxford Title: Precision Binary Black Hole Waveform Modeling: Foundations and Recent AdvancesAbstract:Binary black hole mergers are the dominant gravitational-wave sources that LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA detect. For detection, parameter estimation, and tests of GR, we need … Read more
The most complicated binary black hole source is an eccentric binary where both spins and the orbital plane are precessing. These sources become more important at lower frequencies, so modeling them is paramount to the LISA mission and for the … Read more
Junyeong Ahn- Harvard Title: Shedding Light on Topology: Exploring Topological Materials with Light-Matter Interactions Exploration of topological materials is a central theme of modern quantum condensed matter physics, and it is currently encountering new horizons. Traditionally, the field has … Read more
I am Lawrence Machia, a third year graduate student in Nick Law’s lab, and I will be presenting on the Argus Optical Array and its prototypes. The Argus Optical Array will make a horizon-to-horizon movie of the night sky with … Read more

Investigating the O-Na Anticorrelation in Globular Clusters through Improved Low Energy Cross Section Measurements of the 20Ne(p,γ)21Na keV Resonance at LENA Within every Globular Cluster (GC) there exists a star-to-star variation in the abundances of light elements. Specifically, there is an anticorrelation … Read more
For the uninitiated, Physics from the Ground Up is a monthly public talk series based out of Lanza's Cafe in Carrboro where you have the opportunity to share your work to a general audience. This is a great opportunity to engage the … Read more
