Princeton University Extrasolar Planet Discussion Group

Cross-Disciplinary Characterization of Exoplanet Atmospheres: Observation, Theory, and Experiment
Jeehyun Yang (JPL)
12:00pm|Zoom and Peyton Dome Rm, Princeton University

With the advent of JWST, the need for detailed chemical and photochemical models of exoplanet atmospheres has increased. Traditionally, building reaction networks required manually tracking species and reactions, a process that is both time...

Institute for Advanced Study/Princeton University Early Universe/Cosmology Lunch Discussion

Impact of primordial magnetic fields on structure formation
Pranjal Ralegankar (SISSA)
12:30pm|IAS, Rubenstein Commons Rm 1 or Peyton Hall, Grand Central

Primordial magnetic fields (PMFs) offer a simple explanation for the origin of galactic magnetic fields as well as of the purportedly detected magnetic fields in cosmic voids. In the talk, I discuss how PMFs' influence on structure formation can...

Princeton University Gravity Initiative Fall Seminar Series

Construction of multi-soliton solutions for semilinear equations in dimension 3
Istvan Kadar
12:30pm|Princeton University, Jadwin Hall, Princeton Gravity Initiative, 4th Floor & Zoom

Abstract: The existence of multi black hole solutions in asymptotically flat spacetimes is one of the expectation from the final state conjecture. In this talk, I will present preliminary works in this direction via a semilinear toy model in...
