Building a Physical Understanding of Galaxy Evolution with Data-driven Astronomy
This program will initiate a discussion between the empirical exploration of the extremely large and diverse data sets from both observations and simulations and the deduction of the underlying physics, aiming to answer...
The Cosmic Web: Connecting Galaxies to Cosmology at High and Low Redshift
During this program, through talks and focussed discussion sessions, we expect to understand the web itself and its connections to galaxy formation, re-ionisation, and cosmology.
Our Galactic Ecosystem: Opportunities and Diagnostics in the Infrared and Beyond
The Galactic Ecosystems: Far Infrared Diagnostics and Opportunities
White Dwarfs as Probes of the Evolution of Planets, Stars, the Milky Way and the Expanding Universe
This program is motivated by the recent observational insights concerning white dwarfs as individuals and as a population, based on the astrometry from Gaia and large photometric (e.g. Kepler,TESS, ZTF) and spectroscopic...
White Dwarfs from Physics to Astrophysics
Astrometric, photometric and spectroscopic all-sky surveys provide the first complete, unbiased view of the Galactic population of the most abundant type of stellar remnants: white dwarfs.
LISA Canada 2021 Workshop
The Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) mission is a space-based gravitational wave interferometer planned for launch in 2032. It promises major advances across a wide range of fields in physics and astronomy...
AAVSO Webinar, with Dr. David Whelan (Austin College)
AAVSO's free webinar is from 2:00 pm to about 3:00 pm ET, and features Dr. David Whelan (Austin College) presenting on "Classifying Algol C, the Non-Eclipsing Member of the beta Persei System."
SKA Science Meeting: A Precursor View of the SKA Sky
The SKA Science conference 2021, “A precursor’s view of the SKA sky”, is a fully virtual event that has been designed to allow participation from all countries and timezones. The format of the meeting will include...
Fundamentals of Gaseous Halos
Gas in the halos of galaxies dominates the universe's baryon budget, traces its dark-matter potential wells, and supplies the fuel for star formation. Circumgalactic gas has also long been suspected to regulate galaxy...
Accurate Flux Calibration for 21st Century Astrophysics
Whenever an observation of an astrophysical source must be converted from instrumental values to physical units, we use flux calibration. As new questions are formulated and new capabilities become available, the...
9th Gulf Coast Gravity Meeting
The 9th Gulf Coast Gravity Meeting will be held at the University of Mississippi, Oxford, MS, on March 13 and 14, 2020. In the tradition of the Gulf Coast Gravity Meetings, students and postdocs are strongly encouraged...
