IAS Quantum Aspects of Black Holes Group Meeting

A Compendium of Logarithmic Corrections in AdS/CFT
Nikolay Bobev
11:00am|Bloomberg Hall Physics Library

Abstract: I will discuss the log(N) corrections to the Euclidean gravitational path integral in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence for 3d SCFTs arising from N M2-branes. These corrections can be computed in 4d gravity using heat kernel...

Institute for Advanced Study Astrophysics Seminar

Decoding Supernova Remnants
Abigail Polin
11:00am|Bloomberg Lecture Hall

I will discuss a new method for analyzing the morphology of supernova remnants (SNRs) by using power specula analysis to diagnose the drivers responsible for structure at different angular scales. Using a suite of hydrodynamic models of the Rayleigh...

Princeton University Thunch Talk

Pardo: Gravitational-wave detection with photometric surveys
Jamila Pegues (Space Telescope Science Institute) Kris Pardo (University of Southern California)
12:00pm|Peyton Hall, Grand Central

Pardo: Gravitational waves have offered us a whole new way of looking at our Universe. So far, we have seen them in the ~10-100 Hz range, and, most recently, in the nanohertz regime. However, there are parts of the frequency space that are currently...
