Past Seminars



Astrophysics Seminar: Synergies Between Imaging and Spectroscopic Surveys for Cosmology

- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

Current and forthcoming sky surveys promise to deliver
datasets orders of magnitude better in quality and size than their
predecessors, but our ability to take advantage of these datasets is



Special Condensed & Living Matter Seminar: Mechanobiology in vivo and in 3D

Keng-hui Lin (Academia Sinica, Taiwan)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 2N3

This talk will have two parts. The first part concerns the mechanical wave observed in the wound healing of zebrafish tailfin. Highly regenerative animals can regrow lost appendages and the rate of regrowth is…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Cornering axion(s) with direct detection and stellar probes

Edoardo Vitagliano (Hebrew U.)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 3W2

Feebly interacting particles (FIPs), such as axions, scalars, dark photons, and majorons, are often theoretically well motivated, and a dark sector including one or more of them can both have the…



High Energy Theory Seminar: Coherence in the sky: from precision astrometry to black holes and hidden particles

Masha Baryakhtar (U. Wash)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4N12

In the era of a wealth of data from the sky, new perspectives can lead to parametric improvements in discovery reach.  I will discuss two ideas that make use of surprising properties of coherent radiation to open new…



Astrophysics Seminar: Constraining Galaxy Formation And Baryonic Effects On LSS With Observations Of The Thermal And Kinetic SZ Effects

Nick Battaglia (Cornell University)
- David Rittenhouse Laboratory, 4E19

A new window into the growth and evolution of large-scale structure has opened up with the recent observations of the thermal and kinetic Sunyaev-Zel’dovich (SZ) effects. I will…
