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...

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...

The Bahcall Lunch follows the astrophysics colloquium lecture. Registration is required by 4pm the previous Thursday so a meal can be provided. Email Amanda at cenker@ias.edu with questions.

Gravitational lensing and other phenomena help to show the distribution of mass within galaxies and throughout the universe, revealing the connection between the dark and bright sides of the Universe. On galactic scales, the observed mass...
