Anna Porredon (Ohio State University) “Dark Energy Survey Year 3 Results from Galaxy Clustering and Weak Lensing”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

ABSTRACT: The cosmological information extracted from photometric surveys is more robust when multiple probes of the large-scale structure of the universe are used. Two of the most sensitive probes are galaxy clustering and weak lensing. I will present cosmological results …

Kendall Mahn (Michigan State University) “Results from T2K  and the current landscape of neutrino oscillation”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

Abstract: Neutrinos are a tiny subatomic particle with surprising properties under active study. In particular, neutrinos oscillate, that is, they convert from one type of neutrino to another, is a surprising phenomenon under active study. The origin of neutrino mass …

Christian Bauer (LBNL) “Quantum computing for High Energy Physics”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

ABSTRACT: I will review the Quantum Computing efforts in the Physics division, with the goal of allowing to calculate important properties of the Standard Model non-perturbatively and ultimately to simulate scattering at colliders from first principles. I will present several …

Taylor Hoyt (University of Chicago) “Using Astrophysical Distance Indicators to Test Standard Cosmology”

Zoom Talk 50A-5132, Berkeley, ca

Abstract: Measurements of the universe's present-day expansion rate, or the Hubble constant (H0), that use a Cepheid variable star calibration of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are in >4σ disagreement with values predicted by the standard, Lambda cold dark matter …
