CRA Seminar: Mariia Fedkevych (GT)

Bogg 1-44 VizLab

Title: “Trinity neutrino observatory: progress of the Demonstrator phase” Abstract: In this seminar, I will present the Trinity’s pioneering efforts in Earth-skimming tau neutrino detection. I delve into the evolution of the Trinity project focusing on the Demonstrator phase, detailing its concept, development, and deployment. I will  discuss its operational challenges and highlights the instrument's … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Mariia Fedkevych (GT)"

Title: Going wider and deeper in the search for gravitational waves Abstract: Gravitational waves (GWs) are oscillations of spacetime itself due to strong dynamical gravity. Since its first detection by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) in 2015, a network of the ground-based GW detectors detected 90 signals from compact binary mergers by 2020. In … Continue reading "Leo Tsukada -Penn State Un"

Title: Insights from Local Simulations of Accretion Disk Coronae: Two-temperature effects, thermal conduction, and radiation transport Abstract: I will present a series of local accretion disk models, i.e., stratified shearing-box magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations, for radiatively efficient accretion flows (REFs), which for the first time, include the effects of field-aligned free-streaming thermal conduction and radiation transport. … Continue reading "CRA Seminar: Chris Bambic Princeton UN"
