Title: Glitches get stitches: The effect non-transient noise in LIGO detectors on astrophysical inference, and what to do about it Abstract: Ground-based gravitational-wave detector networks have detected a deluge of compact-binary events in the years since the original 2015 detection. Far more often than these events (approximately every two minutes), detectors experience transient, non-gaussian noise … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Sophie Hourihane (Caltech)"

Title: Hunting extragalactic tau neutrinos in mountains, canyons, and volcanoes Abstract: The IceCube neutrino observatory discovered a high energy astrophysical neutrino flux extending to ~10PeV in energy. A first generation extragalactic … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Ibrahim Safa (Columbia)"

Title: Studying neutrino mass and dark matter, the key factors of the Universe structure formation Abstract: The formation of the structure of the Universe observed today is largely determined by … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Mariia Fedkevych"

Please join us this Thursday, September 7, 2023, for our next CRA seminar, given by Matthew Liska, a Hubble Fellow who has just arrived to the CRA. Speaker: Matthew Liska … Continue reading "CRA Seminar – Matthew Liska (GT)"

On the Importance of Expanding and Improving Numerical Relativity Simulations Speaker: Jacob Lange (University of Texas at Austin) Date: Thursday, September 14th, 2023 Time: 3:30PM – 4:30PM Location: CRA Visualization Lab (Boggs … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Jacob Lange (UT Austin)"

Title: Dark Black Holes Abstract: Gravitational wave detections of merging ultracompact objects provide a completely new way to constrain a large class of dark matter models. If the dark matter consists of … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Sarah Shandera (Penn State)"

Title: Numerical Relativity and Beyond-GR Theories Abstract: Future gravitational wave observatories will deepen our understanding of gravity in the most extreme environments we have probed so far. Ensuring that our … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Marceline Bonilla (Cal State – Fullerton)"
