Séminaire IRAP

Thomas Haworth - Queen Mary University There is growing evidence that planet-forming disks around young stars can be affected by their wider star forming environment. This environmental impact takes many forms, from chemical inheritance, to gravitational encounters, ``late’’ infall from molecular clouds and external photoevaporation. The latter is my main focus, wherein UV radiation from […]

Daily Flaring Activity of the Black Hole at the Center of the Galaxy Farhad Zadeh - Northwestern U. It is clear that an under-luminous supermassive black hole (Sgr A*) with a mass of 4.2 million solar mass lies at the center of the Galaxy. Precise measurements taken at radio and infrared wavelengths over the last two […]

Daniela Huppenkothen - U. Amsterdam In data science, the concept of 'hacking' involves ingeniously repurposing solutions from diverse fields to tackle new and complex challenges. My group uses this approach to address fundamental astrophysical questions by drawing on methods and tools originally built for disparate problems in industry or other academic fields. This talk focuses […]
