SUMMARY:Oliver Just (RIKEN)​ - Modeling remnants of neutron-star mergers and core-collapse supernovae
DESCRIPTION: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 a unique laboratory to investigate matter and spacetime under extreme conditions\, these events are particularly difficult to model theoretically\, one of the most challenging\, but equally important ingredients being the neutrino transport. The latter is not only responsible for cooling the compact remnant and heating its surroundings\, but it may also have a major leverage on the nucleosynthesis conditions in the ejecta and the eventual launch of a polar jet. In this talk I will review the current state-of-the-art in modeling mergers and core-collapse supernovae and present some recent results that we obtained from numerical simulations.

SUMMARY:Stephen Portillo (Harvard) - Improved Source Detection in Crowded Fields using Probabilistic Cataloging
DESCRIPTION: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 from the image and thus can capture source-source covariance and deblending ambiguities. By comparing to a traditional catalog of the same image and a Hubble Space Telescope catalog of the same region\, we show that our catalog ensemble better recovers sources from the image. It goes more than a magnitude deeper than the traditional catalog while having a lower false discovery rate brighter than 20th magnitude. Future telescopes will be more sensitive\, and thus more of their images will be crowded. We detail our efforts to extend probabilistic cataloging to galaxies\, making the method applicable to the data that will be collected in the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope era.
