## Scalable Space-time adaptivity for Simulations of Binary Black Hole Intermediate-Mass-Ratio-Inspirals We present a highly scalable framework that targets problems of interest to the numerical relativity and broader astrophysics communities. … Continue reading "CRA seminar (Hari Sundar)"

CRA seminar (Prof. Jong-Hak Woo)

Boggs 1-90 VizLab

Title/Abstract: 1. 10,000 solar mass black hole in NGC 4395 - primordial or no AGN feedback? I will present the reverberation-mapping study of the lowest-luminosity Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4395, based on the monitoring campaign in 2017 and 2018. The time delay of the Hα emission is measured as 83±14 min.. Combining with the Hα … Continue reading "CRA seminar (Prof. Jong-Hak Woo)"

Title: Circumgalactic Media of Low-mass, Star-forming EAGLE Galaxies Abstract: Advances in observational techniques have made it possible to analyze the circumgalactic medium (CGM) in previously inaccessible detail. Often defined as the elusive region outside of the disk but within the virial radius of galaxies, the CGM is thought to have a critical role in processes … Continue reading "CRA Cosmic Coffee: Brian Cook (Leiden University)"

CRA Cosmic Coffee: Billy Quarles

Howey N201/202 837 State Street, Atlanta, GA, United States

Title: Obliquity Evolution of Earthlike planets in α Centauri AB Abstract: Changes in planetary obliquity, or axial tilt, influence the climatic conditions on a potentially habitable planet, where orbital perturbations from a binary star companion can drive these changes to extremes. We study the evolution of planetary obliquity for an Earthlike planet in the habitable … Continue reading "CRA Cosmic Coffee: Billy Quarles"

CRA Seminar by Jacob Lange (RIT)

Web: https://ccrg.rit.edu/user/jacob.lange Title: RIFT'ing the Waves: An algorithm to perform Rapid parameter inference on gavitational wave sources via Iterative FiTing Abstract: As the gravitational wave (GW) observatories get more sensitive, the number of confident detection will grow exponentially. Conventional parameter estimation (PE) algorithms have to use specifically-tuned settings with fast waveform models to estimation parameters … Continue reading "CRA Seminar by Jacob Lange (RIT)"
