Institute for Nuclear and Particle Astrophysics (INPA) at LBNL
The INPA Seminar weekly talks are on Fridays, starting at 12:00 pm, unless informed otherwise. The seminar talk starts with a brief presentation of the weekly scientific news. Typically, the talks conclude by 1:00 pm. The seminars are held in the Sessler Conference Room, located in Bldg. 50A- 5132.
The committee members are:
The seminar schedule for the Institute for Nuclear and Particle Astrophysics (INPA) is tentative and becomes final a few days before the Friday talk.
Please send all suggestions for future INPA talks and speakers to the INPA Committee.

Probing Dark Matter with Radio Surveys
INPA Common Room 50-5026Julian Munoz Probing Dark Matter with Radio Surveys A significant part of dark matter could be compact, in particular in the form of primordial black holes. I will review the signatures of primordial black holes, both in the form of gravitational-wave events and as gravitational lenses of fast radio bursts. Alternatively, a WIMP-y dark-matter component […]

INPA Common Room 50-5026Initial results from the Majorana Demonstrator – By Alan Poon – LBNL
50A-5132- Sessler 50A-5132 Sessler Conference Room, CANeutrinoless double-beta decay experiments play a major role in the search for lepton number violation and the Majorana nature of the neutrino mass. The MAJORANA Collaboration has assembled two modules of high-purity Ge detectors to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in 76-Ge at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota. One of the […]
Marcelo Alvarez -Simulating Large Scale Structure Observables from Reionization to the Present
50A-5132- Sessler 50A-5132 Sessler Conference Room, CAThe next generation of large scale structure surveys will map out the universe in unprecedented detail. Transformative techniques in computational astrophysics are emerging as the optimal ways to extract information from these surveys, with realistic and routine full sky simulations finally within reach. I will describe a new pipeline for efficiently simulating high resolution maps […]
INPA guests from campus can now come to the lab early on Fridays. The INPA Common Room (50-5026) is reserved for our guests from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon and from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Note that the seminars are now held in 50A-5132 to accommodate a more significant number of attendees.
