SUMMARY:Presentation:Sky Tonight
DESCRIPTION:A live presentation on what to find in the sky tonight and for the coming few weeks. This presentation includes how to find the cardinal directions on your own with the North Star\, current and upcoming constellations\, visible planets\, a few deep sky objects depending on the season\, and other interesting astronomical visualizations. If you want to be able to look up from your own backyard and know what to look for\, this is the show for you. \n\nThe state-of-the-art Planetarium & Dome Theater at the U-M Museum of Natural History transports visitors beyond distant stars and back in time from the comfort of reclining seats. Tickets are $8 for adults\, seniors\, and children ages 3 & up. Babies without tickets may be required to sit on an adult's lap. Tickets are available the day of the show in the Museum Store. Schedule subject to change.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:AIM Seminar:  Filtered volume fraction fluctuations in dilute\, non-collisional\, particle-laden flow
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:  Turbulent particle-laden flows give rise to spatial heterogeneity (e.g. clustering) characterized by two-point statistics.  Most coarse-grained (i.e. two fluid) models only solve for one-point moments\, limiting reproduction of important two-phase flow statistics.  In this talk\, we present set of equations describing the evolution of these flows that include fluctuating components of filtered fields --- a description of the level of clustering present in these flows.  For dilute heavy particles settling in homogeneous isotropic turbulence\, the averaged filtered drag and filtered Reynolds-stress like term that dictates enhanced settling is correlated to this description of volume fraction fluctuation.  A data-driven approach that efficiently traverses parameter space in direct numerical simulations to inform closures is proposed\, providing both descriptive insights and directions for future modeling.  Further\, a numerical crossflow experiment is proposed\, yielding several advantages over traditional forced homogeneous isotropic turbulence for the study of turbulent particle-laden flows.  The filtered volume fraction is shown to be valuable in that it may enable better fits for unclosed quantities related to particle drag and particle-phase momentum flux in coarse-grained simulations.\n\n\nContact:  Silas Alben

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Belyi's theorem
DESCRIPTION:Belyi’s theorem states that a smooth projective complex algebraic curve (i.e. a compact Riemann surface) can be defined over a number field if and only if it can be expressed as a branched covering of the projective line ramified over at most 3 points\, providing a purely topological characterization of an arithmetic condition. I will present a proof of this result and sketch how it leads to Grothendieck’s theory of dessin d'enfants.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:HET Seminar | Recent developments in N=4 Yang-Mills Amplitudes
DESCRIPTION:The most important experimental probes of fundamental physics involve\nthe scattering of elementary particles. Over the years we have seen\nsignificant progress in understanding the properties of scattering\namplitudes and in our ability to carry out new computations both for\ntheoretical and phenomenological purposes. I will overview some recent\ndevelopments in N=4 Yang-Mills amplitudes.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:John Wittmann\, \"Top 10 Things I Wish I Knew\"
DESCRIPTION:This discussion is designed to enlighten and inspire young musicians by taking the mystery out of what I feel is necessary to find one’s path in the music business. Ten concepts are shared which all illuminate personal attributes often forgotten as we study music. All of the ten were realized through my own mistakes and shortcomings. My wish is to transparently share these with people who have doubt as to how they should proceed in this wonderful\, daunting life as a musician. It is real world advice\; no nonsense advice\; get real advice. Examining your own motives\, developing key relationships and embracing change are discussed. *International Musician*\, *Modern Drummer* and *Muso* Magazine have published excerpts from its contents.\n\nTalk followed by a Q&A\n\nGUEST BIO\n\nJOHN WITTMANN is Associate Vice President of Artist Relations for the Yamaha Artist Relations Group. He is responsible for organizing educational programs and support for Yamaha Artists both nationally and internationally. Holding two degrees in music\, John was a band director in New York State where he headed two highly successful High School music programs. John has toured extensively and has given hundreds of drum set clinics. He is an active performer\, clinician and lecturer and has been published in many magazines. John is a strong music advocate and a frequent presenter at NAMM\, PASIC\, and other major music conferences.
