ITC Seminar - Myoungwon Jeon (U. Arizona)

Event
"Formation of the First Galaxies and their Connection to Local Dwarfs" Abstract: Formation of the First Galaxies and their Connection to Local DwarfsAbstract: One of the biggest challenges in modern cosmology is to understand the first generation of stars...

ITC Seminar - Anna Schauer ( Uni Heidelberg)

Event
"The influence of streaming velocities on the formation of the first stars and black holes" The so-called streaming velocities are relative velocities between baryons and dark matter, originating from a second-order perturbation effect at recombination...

ITC Seminar - Jing Luan (Berkeley)

Event
"DAVs: Red Edge & Outbursts" Abstract: As established by ground based surveys, white dwarfs with hydrogen atmospheres pulsate as they cool across the temperature range, $12500K< Teff < 10800K $. Known as DAVs or ZZ Ceti stars, their oscillations are...

ITC Seminar - Clara Sousa-Silva (MIT)

Event
"Simulations of molecular spectra for detection of biosignature gases and other volatiles" The ability to identify molecules within spectra is of importance for a variety of scientific and industrial uses. A compelling modern focus is the spectroscopic...

ITC Seminar - Andrew Hearin (ANL)

Event
"Self-consistent empirical modeling of the evolution of galaxy morphology" Abstract: Recent advances in modeling the galaxy—halo connection have dramatically expanded the predictivity of data-driven approaches to galaxy formation modeling. Traditional...

Special ITC Colloquium - Robert Scherrer

Event
“The Primordial Lithium Problem” Abstract: Big bang nucleosynthesis (BBN) remains one of the major pillars of modern cosmology. A comparison of predicted and observationally-inferred primordial 2H and 4He abundances implies a baryon density in excellent...
