SUMMARY:Speaker: Carolina Cuesta-Lazaro (Harvard) Title: Big Data Cosmology Meets AI
DESCRIPTION:INPA SEMINAR TALK \nDate: Friday\, May 3\, 2024 \nTime: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room–50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Carolina Cuesta-Lazaro (Harvard) \nTitle:  Big Data cosmology meets AI \nAbstract: The upcoming era of cosmological surveys promises an unprecedented wealth of observational data that will transform our understanding of the universe. Surveys such as DESI\, Euclid\, and the Vera C. Rubin Observatory will provide extremely detailed maps of billions of galaxies out to high redshifts. Analyzing these massive datasets poses exciting challenges that machine learning is uniquely poised to help overcome. In this talk\, I will highlight recent examples from my work on probabilistic machine learning for cosmology. First\, I will explain how a point cloud diffusion model can be used both as a generative model for 3D maps of galaxy clustering and as a likelihood model for such datasets. Moreover\, I will present a generative model developed to reconstruct the dark matter cosmic web from biased galaxy clustering observations\, in a probabilistic manner. And finally\, I will introduce ongoing work on developing fast\, differentiable\, and accurate hybrid physics-ML simulators for N-body and hydrodynamical simulations. When combined with the wealth of data from upcoming surveys\, these machine learning techniques have the potential to provide new insights into fundamental questions about the nature of the universe. \nJoin Zoom \nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011 \nPasscode: 247722

SUMMARY:Speaker: Yashwanth Bezawada(UC Davis)Title: Pulsed neutron detection
DESCRIPTION:INPA SEMINAR TALK \nDate: May 10\, 2024 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker: Yashwanth Bezawada (UC Davis) \nTitle:  Quest to understand neutron propagation in liquid Argon \nAbstract: Liquid Argon (LAr) has become the primary detector material in many neutrino and dark matter experiments like DUNE\, SBND\, ICARUS\, MicroBooNE\, and DarkSide. In particular\, multi-kiloton experiments like the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) have stringent requirements for systematic uncertainties on the energy scale and resolution. Neutron production from neutrino interaction brings a large uncertainty on neutrino energy reconstruction in the form of missing energy. One of the proposed calibration systems is the Pulsed Neutron Source (PNS) system\, which utilizes neutrons traveling long distances in liquid argon to calibrate the enormous DUNE far detector volume. \nThus\, it is of utmost importance to understand neutron propagation and capture in liquid argon. The group at Davis is involved in an effort to measure the total neutron cross-section on Argon for a wide range of neutron energies. In this talk\, I will talk about the ARTIE experiment that made the first effort to measure the cross-section dip at 57 keV\, the Multiple Argon Experiments (MArEX) initiative\, which was established to perform accurate transmission and capture measurements at the n_TOF facility in CERN\, and the neutron generator test performed at CERN to test the feasibility of the PNS calibration system. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011\n\nPasscode: 247722 \n  \n

SUMMARY:Speaker: Elena Hernandez Martinez (CCA/LMU)Title: Simulating our Universe. How and Why? 
DESCRIPTION:INPA SEMINAR TALK \nDate: May 31\, 2024 \nTime: 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm \nLocation: Sessler Conference Room – 50A-5132 [Hybrid and In-Person] \nSpeaker:  Elena Hernandez Martinez (CCA/LMU) \nTitle: Simulating our Universe. How and Why?  \nAbstract: We will present SLOW\, the simulated cosmic volume (500 Mpc/h) that features the most extensive collection of Local Universe Galaxy Clusters ever replicated\, accurately set within the appropriate large-scale framework. We will show current predictions about these structures based on our simulated results and compare them with observational data. Additionally\, the discussion will cover how these simulations open new avenues for research in galaxy cluster and cosmology studies. \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://lbnl.zoom.us/j/95016696011?pwd=Tk1XOW1Xd3RYRnlsc2tEYmRWZlVVZz09 \nMeeting ID: 950 1669 6011\n\nPasscode: 247722 \n
