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.

Oliver Just (RIKEN) – Modeling remnants of neutron-star mergers and core-collapse supernovae
Oliver Just (RIKEN) – Modeling remnants of neutron-star mergers and core-collapse supernovae
Neutron-star mergers and core-collapse supernovae are promising events to herald a new era of multi-messenger astronomy, as they release substantial amounts of energy in gravitational waves, neutrinos, and electromagnetic emission. Moreover, these events are connected to long-standing physics questions related to, e.g., heavy-element nucleosynthesis, gamma-ray bursts, and the nuclear equation of state. However, while offering […]

Stephen Portillo (Harvard) – Improved Source Detection in Crowded Fields using Probabilistic Cataloging
Stephen Portillo (Harvard) – Improved Source Detection in Crowded Fields using Probabilistic Cataloging
Cataloging is challenging in crowded fields because sources are extremely covariant with their neighbors and blending makes even the number of sources ambiguous. We present the first optical probabilistic stellar catalog, cataloging a crowded (~0.1 sources per pixel) Sloan Digital Sky Survey r band image from M2. Probabilistic cataloging returns an ensemble of catalogs inferred […]
