HEP-Astro Seminar | Dark Matter Searches in LZ and Beyond (December 2, 2019 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/69733 69733-17392933@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, December 2, 2019 1:00pm
Location: West Hall
Organized By: HEP - Astro Seminars

LZ will be the world's most sensitive dark matter direct detection experiment, starting to take data in Spring 2020. The experiment is located 1 mi underground in the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, SD. LZ consists of a central time projection chamber (TPC) containing 7 tonnes of liquid xenon as dark matter target surrounded by an outer detector (OD) with 17 tonnes of gadolinium doped liquid scintillator to veto neutrons. I will highlight my group's research contributions to TPC assembly as well as to design and manufacturing of the OD. I will demonstrate how the equipment we built, combined with my analysis and phenomenological experience, will lead to most the sensitive searches including novel signatures. The use of active veto detectors has been adopted by all upcoming direct dark matter experiments and are indispensable to the future of the field. I will present status of my program to develop novel scintillating detectors including the first concepts for future veto detectors for the next generation of dark matter experiments.

Title: "What's up (and down) in the Earth's Van Allen radiation belts?"

Abstract: The high-energy tail of the plasma in near-Earth space is trapped by the geomagnetic field, forming the Van Allen radiation belts that encircle the Earth. Various physical processes can rapidly accelerate these charged particles to prodigious energies, in excess of one megaelectron volt, on timescales of one day or less. Owing to the hazard that this radiation poses to manmade technologies in space, there is considerable interest in understanding the processes that govern the particle dynamics. To that end, NASA launched the twin Van Allen Probes in 2012 to improve radiation belt predictability, and radiation belt science has evolved significantly over that time. With the recent conclusion of the mission, it is time to survey the landscape to take stock of where we have been, and where we are going. We will thus present an overview of recent advances in radiation belt science, highlighting current research trends and several unresolved issues, with an emphasis on what has been revealed in the Van Allen Probes observations.

Being Human in STEM: An Experiment in Partnering with Students to Address Issues of Equity in STEM (January 16, 2020 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/69259 69259-17275351@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, January 16, 2020 12:00pm
Location: Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.)
Organized By: LSA Biophysics

When student protesters occupied the Amherst College library for four days in November of 2015, the campus community was transfixed by the painful testimonials shared by marginalized students about their experiences at Amherst as individuals identifying as Black, brown, female, queer, trans, disabled, international, among others. In response to letters from a Black neuroscience major and a non-binary biochemistry and biophysics major, every STEM department wrote a letter of support, pledging to work with students to address their concerns. The following semester, Chemistry professor Sheila Jaswal collaborated with students to develop a project-based course, titled “Being Human in STEM” (HSTEM), to actively engage STEM students and departments in learning about and enhancing inclusion in STEM settings. Now in its sixth iteration, students drive the academic inquiry, investigating both the local experience and the literature on diversity in STEM. They then use that research to design tools and interventions to share with and enhance their own STEM community.  In this seminar, Professor Jaswal will describe how HSTEM course projects and activities have continued the conversation started by students during the Uprising, connected STEM inclusion efforts across the Amherst campus, and produced resources such as the “Inclusive Curricular Practices” handbook, that have been used by STEM educators from high schools, colleges, universities, and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Inclusive Excellence institutions. She will present evidence on the impact of the HSTEM course and practices on students, faculty and staff at Amherst, and provide examples of how a growing network of institutions, including Yale, Brown, Williams, and the University of Utah, are adapting the HSTEM model to their own STEM community needs.

Location: GG Brown Laboratory
Organized By: American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics

Alice Bowman, of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory and New Horizons Mission Operations Manager (MOM), talks about the voyage of NASA’s historic mission to Pluto and the Kuiper Belt– which culminated with the first flight past the distant dwarf planet on July 14, 2015 and the first encounter with a Kuiper Belt object (KBO) on January 1, 2019.

She’ll speak about this continuing journey through the eyes of the APL mission operations team and describe some of the technical, scientific, and personal challenges of piloting the New Horizons spacecraft across the solar system on its voyage to the farthest reaches of the planetary frontier.

Food and beverages will be provided.

Andrew Wetzel: Simulating the Milky Way (January 24, 2020 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/71427 71427-17825687@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, January 24, 2020 1:00pm
Location: West Hall
Organized By: Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering

Abstract: The Gaia satellite mission, together with a multitude of ground-based observational surveys, now measure 6-D phase-space coordinates and multi-species elemental abundances for hundreds of millions of stars across the Milky Way. This new era of galactic archeology and near-field cosmology demands a new generation of simulations that achieve high dynamic range to resolve scales of individual stellar populations within a cosmological context. I will describe the new Latte suite of massively parallelized cosmological zoom-in simulations, run on the nation’s most powerful supercomputers, that model the formation of Milky Way-like galaxies at parsec-scale resolution, using the FIRE (Feedback in Realistic Environments) model for star formation and feedback. First I will discuss the formation of the Milky Way disk, including resolving for the first time the dynamics and lifetimes of giant molecular clouds and stars clusters at z = 0. These simulations also self-consistently resolve the formation of satellite dwarf galaxies around each Milky Way-like host. These low-mass galaxies have presented significant challenges to the cold dark matter model, but I will show progress in addressing the “missing satellites” and “too-big-to-fail” problems. Finally, I will discuss synthetic Milky Way surveys that we have created from the Latte simulations, which are publicly available, to provide theoretical modeling insight for the era of Gaia.

Bio: Professor Wetzel is an assistant professor in the physics department and in the astrophysics and cosmology group at the University of California, Davis. He is a theoretical/computational astrophysicist and cosmologist. Using the world’s most powerful supercomputers, he generates cosmological simulations to model the formation of cosmic structures, including galaxies and their stars. He uses these simulations as theoretical laboratories to develop and test models of galaxy formation, stellar dynamics, and the nature of dark matter, with emphasis on our own Milky Way galaxy.

Organized By: Michigan Institute for Research in Astrophysics

“Recommendations for a More Inclusive Canadian Astronomy Community”

The Canadian astronomical community is currently undergoing its "Long Range Planning" process, similar to the Decadal Survey in the US. As such, the Equity and Inclusivity Committee (EIC) has recently shared a white paper with a set of recommendations for improving the representation of minoritized peoples and the working conditions in the professional astronomy community: http://myumi.ch/Bo38l. I'll briefly describe these recommendations and then open an informal discussion of their merit (and what we have inevitably missed!).

Please note: Should you require any reasonable accommodations to ensure equal access and opportunity related to this event please contact Stacy Tiburzi at 734-764-3440 or stibu@umich.edu.
