Abstract: On September 14, 2015 at 09:50:45 UTC the two detectors of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory simultaneously observed a transient gravitational-wave signal. The signal sweeps upwards in frequency from 35 to 250 Hz and matches the waveform predicted by … Read more
Abstract: New acceleration technology is mandatory for the future of high energy particle physics. A promising approach is to exploit the properties of plasmas. An experimental program has started at CERN, the AWAKE experiment, where proton bunches will be used … Read more
Abstract: At the turn of the 21st Century, new tools and developments, at the crossroads of theoretical and computational astrophysics, observational astronomy, cosmochemistry, and nuclear physics, have revolutionized our understanding of the physics of stellar explosions. The use of space-borne … Read more
Cosmic phenomena, including the origin of the universe, stellar explosions on the surface of white dwarfs, and the evolution of our galaxy, cannot be understood without a proper knowledge of thermonuclear reaction rates. This CoSMS workshop is designed to build … Read more
Dr Mark Hannam, from the School of Physics and Astronomy at Cardiff University, will give a talk on Numerical Relativity and the Future of Gravitational-Wave Astronomy. See flyer here This talk follows a UNC Astrophysics lecture by Dr. Subinoy Das of the … Read more
This 3 Day CoSMS workshop centers on Theoretical and Experimental constraints on Naturalness, the main driver for physics beyond the Standard Model for many years. The next few years are expected to be especially informative. More information and registration available at: http://wasabi.physics.unc.edu/indico/event/2/overview
Dr John Lattanzio, from the Centre for Astrophysics School of Physics and Astronomy at Monash University in Clayton, Australia, will give a talk entitled "Has Kepler Found Aliens?" The Kepler spacecraft has revolutionized the search for exo-planets, and provided aster … Read more
