Physikalisches Kolloquium

Freitag, 26. April 2024 17:00 Uhr  The road to AI-based discovery in particle physics

Prof. Dr. Gregor Kasieczka, Institut für Experimentalphysik, Universität Hamburg Modern machine learning and artificial intelligence are starting to fundamentally change how we analyze huge volumes of data in particle physics and adjacent scientific disciplines. These breakthroughs promise new insights into major scientific questions such as the nature of dark matter or the existence of physical phenomena beyond the standard model. This colloquium will provide an overview of recent, exciting developments with a focus on model agnostic discovery strategies — including first experimental results, fast simulations, and foundation models that simultaneously solve multiple tasks across multiple datasets.

Astronomisches Kolloquium

Dienstag, 30. April 2024 16:30 Uhr  Rim Worlds: Computational astrophysics of accretion disks

Dr Mario Flock, Max-Planck-Institut fuer Astronomie Understanding the formation of (exo)-planetary systems requires the combined effort of advanced computational models and high-resolution multi-wavelength observations. In my talk, I will review our current understanding of the dynamic evolution of protoplanetary disks. 3D multi-physics simulations and high-performance computing allow us to study the thermal and kinematical evolution of young circumstellar disks and planets' birthplaces in detail. I will also highlight why the inner disk regions, especially those close to the silicate sublimation, are crucial for forming terrestrial planets. Those unable to attend the colloquium in person are invited to participate online through Zoom (Meeting ID: 942 0262 2849, passcode 792771) using the link: https://eu02web.zoom-x.de/j/94202622849?pwd=dGlPQXBiUytzY1M2UE5oUDRhbzNOZz09
