30 Andrei Gruzinov, Statistical Mechanics of Star Clusters? (12:30 PM - 1:30 PM) | 31 , Astro Journal Club (12:30 PM - 1:30 PM) Sasha Tchekhovskoy, Simulating Black Hole Feasts, Burps, Fireworks, and Gravitational Waves (2:00 PM - 3:15 PM) -- Abstract: Based on latest state of the art general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations, I will discuss how black holes feast on the surrounding gas, burp away their surroundings, and produce bright emission in a wide range of contexts, ranging from supermassive black holes at the centers of active galaxies to stellar-mass black holes in the context of neutron star collisions and collapsing massive stars. I will finish by discussing how jetted stellar collapse can power gravitational waves detectable by present-day gravitational wave detectors. | 1 , HEP Journal Club (12:30 PM - 1:30 PM) Ibrahima Bah, Topological stars in gravity (2:00 PM - 3:00 PM) + Abstract: | 2 Kota Katsumi, Collective Excitations in Quantum Materials Probed by Light: The Higgs Mode in Superconductors (10:00 AM - 12:00 PM) + Abstract: Robert Cava, Working at the boundary where Solid State Chemistry, Mineralogy and Materials Science Meet Materials Physics (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) + Abstract: | 3 |
