DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alice Quillen (University of Rochester)\nTitle: Expre
 ssions of Resonant dynamics in Classical and Quantum systems\nAbstract: Al
 ice Quillen will illustrate rich connections between classical and quantum
  expressions of chaos\, adiabatic drift\, resonance capture\, sensitivity 
 to control parameters and information loss.  A method for predicting chaot
 ic behavior used in galactic dynamics and celestial mechanics has a quantu
 m equivalent.  A sensitive classical chaotic perturbed system inspires a q
 uantum sampler.   Quantum systems with divided phase space are described w
 ith a classical adiabatic limit and resonant capture probability but are a
 lways susceptible to transitions into superposition states.\n

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alessandro Morbidelli (Observatoire de la Cote d&#x27
 \;Azur | Nice\, France)\nTitle: Formation and evolution of a protoplanetar
 y disk: combining observations\, simulations and cosmochemical constraints
 \nAbstract: Observations of protoplanetary disks with ALMA have revealed a
  large diversity of properties\, but also some common tendencies in terms 
 of dust/gas density and radial extension ratios\, as well as the appearanc
 e of features like rings and gaps or cavities. It is too late to observe t
 he proto-solar disk\, but many of its properties can be inferred from the 
 current distribution of planetesimals and using cosmochemical constraints 
 on the chronology of planetesimal accretion and the isotopic heterogeneity
  of the disk. I will review the available data which can be used to recons
 truct the proto-solar disk. The view that emerges is that of a quite stand
 ard disk of about 90 au in gas radius and 45 au in dust radius\, forming p
 lanetesimals at two distinct epochs (one of which very early\, while the d
 isk was presumably still in Class-0 or Class-1 stage) and evolving towards
  a transition disk at the appearance of Jupiter and Saturn. Similarities a
 nd differences with the PDS70 disk will be discussed.\nNote: Host: Oliver

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Sebastian Kamann (Liverpool John Moores Universit
 y)\nTitle: Wempe lecture 2 “Star cluster dynamics”\nAbstract: The inte
 riors of massive star clusters are among the most dynamically active envir
 onments in the Universe\, where frequent gravitational encounters continua
 lly reshape stellar orbits and determine the fate of both stars and their 
 host systems. In this talk\, I explore the consequences of this evolution\
 , from gradual processes such as mass segregation and cluster evaporation 
 to dramatic events including core collapse and the possible formation of i
 ntermediate-mass black holes. I will outline the dynamical models used to 
 describe these systems and show how they incorporate cluster evolution whe
 n searching for evidence of these elusive black holes. Finally\, I will su
 rvey the rich population of stellar exotica produced by repeated encounter
 s\, including blue stragglers\, millisecond pulsars\, and binaries compose
 d of stellar remnants and luminous companions. In this context\, one cruci
 al question is whether dense star clusters the primary factories of the bi
 nary black holes whose mergers we now observe through gravitational waves.

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Sebastian Kamann (Liverpool John Moores Universit
 y)\nTitle: Wempe lecture 3 “Young massive star clusters: Treasure chests
  of stellar evolution”\nAbstract: The colour–magnitude diagrams (CMDs)
  of star clusters underpin stellar astrophysics. They calibrate stellar ev
 olution models\, enable age-dating of stellar populations\, and provide te
 mplates for interpreting unresolved galaxies. Yet the CMDs of young massiv
 e clusters show surprising features\, such as split main sequences and ext
 ended turn-offs. This raises the question of whether we truly understand t
 he mechanisms governing stellar distributions across the CMD.\nIn this tal
 k\, I will show how binary interactions and stellar rotation reshape CMD m
 orphologies. Using observations of young massive clusters in the Magellani
 c Clouds obtained with HST and MUSE\, we measure the spin velocities of la
 rge stellar samples and characterise the clusters’ binary populations. O
 ur results reveal distinct populations of slow and fast rotators occupying
  different loci in the CMD. The detection of post-interaction binaries\, s
 uch as blue stragglers and stripped stars\, further enables us to constrai
 n population synthesis models and to assess the contribution of massive st
 ar clusters to the cosmic rate of compact binary mergers observed via grav
 itational waves.\n

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Nic Scott (Georgia State University (The CHARA Array)
 )\nTitle: Recent technical and scientific highlights from the CHARA Array\
 nAbstract: The Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array 
 is a six-element interferometer at Mount Wilson Observatory with baselines
  ranging from 34 to 331 m. The Array hosts a number of new or upgraded\, s
 ix-telescope beam combiners that span the spectrum from the visible R-band
  to the near-infrared K-band with a range in available spectral resolution
 . The most recent are the Silmaril beam combiner that is a three-telescope
  instrument for H- and K-bands that is designed for very high sensitivity 
 on fainter targets and the CHARA Array Integrated Optics Testbed (CHARIOT)
  that is a platform for characterizing integrated optic combiners. A seven
 th\, mobile telescope is now on-site for use with fiber optics for H-band 
 beam transport. The mobile telescope will extend the baseline range from 2
 0 m to 579 m\, creating new opportunities for measurements of stars with l
 arge and small angular diameters. Observing time is available to the commu
 nity through a program funded by NSF. The observing programs are solicited
  and peer-reviewed by NSF's NOIRLab.\nAbout Dr. Scott:\nNic Scott is the T
 elescope Systems Scientist at the Georgia State University Center for High
  Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array. Nic directs all aspects of co
 ntrol and development of the telescopes\, enclosures\, and relay optics of
  the seven CHARA Array telescopes. Nic received dual PhD degrees from Geor
 gia State University and the Observatoire de Paris for his work on a novel
  fiber optics beam combiner at the Array. Prior to his current appointment
  at CHARA\, Nic was a Lead Research Scientist at the NASA Ames Research Ce
 nter where he developed speckle interferometry cameras for the WIYN\, Gemi
 ni-North\, and Gemini-South telescopes. Nic is currently leading the integ
 ration of the CHARA Array Integrated Optics Testbed (CHARIOT) experiment t
 o provide a flexible station in the beam combining laboratory to character
 ize novel integrated optics combiners.\nNote: Let me know if you want to m
 eet Nic.  He will be at AIP until 14.05.\n

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Geraint Lewis (University of Sydney)\nTitle: Confront
 ing the Cosmological Principle: How secure are the foundations of the cosm
 os?\nAbstract: For nearly a century\, the cosmological principle has been 
 the bedrock of our understanding of the universe. But what if this foundat
 ion is starting to crack? In this talk\, I describe how we have used quasa
 rs and radio galaxies to test the assumption that the cosmos is isotropic 
 and homogeneous. We know that the Cosmic Microwave Background displays a s
 trong dipole\, attributed to our motion relative to the local Hubble flow\
 , and if this motion truly defines our cosmic frame\, its imprint should a
 ppear elsewhere. Indeed\, we find a dipole in large-scale surveys of cosmo
 logical sources\, and whilst the direction agrees\,  the amplitude does no
 t\, diverging sharply from expectations based on the CMB. I will explore p
 ossible explanations for these tensions and ask whether they signal new ph
 ysics or a fundamental shift in our cosmological worldview.\n
