The Square Kilometre Array: Big Telescope, Big Science, Big Data
CULC 152Join Russ Taylor in a Frontiers in Science Lecture The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is a next generation global radio telescope currently undergoing final design by a collaboration of institutions in 11 countries. The SKA will be one of the largest scientific projects ever undertaken, designed to answer some of the big questions of our … Continue reading "The Square Kilometre Array: Big Telescope, Big Science, Big Data"

Boggs 1-90 VizLabTitle: Down-going neutrinos and a next-generation surface array for IceCube Abstract: IceCube has recently discovered an astrophysical neutrino flux up to energies of a few PeV. The sources of the flux are not yet identified, but real-time alerts are now in place to look for coincidences with other messengers. Adding a surface array around the … Continue reading "CRA seminar (Dr. Delia Tosi)"

Boggs 1-90 VizLabTitle : Chemo-thermal evolution of metal-poor star-forming gas clouds Abstract: The gravitational collapse of metal-poor gas clouds and star formation are investigated. Recently, the long-lived and metal-poor stars have been observed in the Galactic halo. Yet, the origin of these stars is still unknown. We perform three-dimensional hydrodynamics simulations to see the critical condition for … Continue reading "CRA seminar (Dr. Gen Chiaki)"
