Exploring the Fourth Dimension: TIME with Raffaella Margutti

Показать описание
Time-domain astrophysics pertains to the most violent phenomena in our Universe, including stellar eruptions, disruptions, explosions, and mergers. Combining multiple messengers of information (including light, particles, and gravitational waves), it constitutes a new frontier of discovery in Astrophysics. In this event Margutti will explore some of the most recent advances in the field, and we will discuss some of the most exciting directions of research that will open up in the near future.
Raffaella Margutti received her undergraduate degree in Astrophysics in 2006 (magna cum laude), and her PhD in Physics and Astronomy from the University of Milano Bicocca in 2010. Margutti is a Sloan Fellow in Physics (2019), a CIFAR global scholar in Gravity and the Extreme Universe (2019), she received the NSF Career award in 2019, and received the 2022 New Horizons in Physics Prize for leadership in laying foundations for electromagnetic observations of sources of gravitational waves, and leadership in extracting rich information from the first observed collision of two neutron stars. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Astronomy Department and in the Physics Department at UC Berkeley, and she holds the title of Marc and Cristina Bensadoun Professor in Physics.
This Heinz R. Pagels Memorial Lecture was originally recorded on Wednesday, August 14, 2024, at the Aspen Center for Physics.
