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
