Mercoledì 7 ottobre alle ore 12:00 Marco Mirabile (INAF-OAAb) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Globular Clusters and Dwarf Galaxies as Probes of Structure Formation in the Local Universe”. Abstract: Within the ΛCDM framework, galaxy groups and clusters assemble hierarchically, and their low-mass galaxies and globular cluster (GC) systems act as fossil records of this process. […]
Giovedì 24 settembre alle ore 12:00 Marina Rejkuba (ESO, Garching) terrà un seminario dal titolo “ESO – your science under Chilean skies”. Abstract: The European Southern Observatory (ESO) is an intergovernmental organization that designs, builds, and operates world-leading ground-based astronomical facilities in Chile while fostering international collaboration in astronomy. In this seminar, I will provide a brief overview […]
Mercoledì 8 luglio alle ore 15:00 Yerlan Aimuratov (Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute, Kazakhstan) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Current and Future Views at the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute”. Abstract: In this mainly introductory talk, we will present the Fesenkov Astrophysical Institute (Almaty, Kazakhstan) and its current activities. There are several general directions the institute is pursuing, including the […]
Giovedì 2 luglio alle ore 15 Antonio La Marca (European Space Agency – ESA) terrà un seminario dal titolo “When, Where, and How Are Supermassive Black Holes Fueled?”. Abstract: Supermassive black holes reside at the centers of most galaxies and can profoundly influence their evolution through episodes of intense accretion, phases called Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Despite […]
Giovedì 18 giugno alle ore 15:00 Tom Richtler (U. de Concepcion, Chile) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Modified Newtonian Dynamics – a competitor to the dark matter paradigm”. Abstract: About 1980 it became clear that flat rotation curves of spiral galaxies could not be explained by stellar population properties, but apparently needed invisible matter. Moti Milgrom (1983) […]
Giovedì 04 giugno alle ore 15:00 Maria Pia Di Mauro (INAF – Istituto di Astrofisica e Planetologia Spaziali, Rome, Italy) terrà un seminario dal titolo “The impact of asteroseismology in modern astrophysics“. Abstract: Asteroseismology has evolved from a largely descriptive discipline into one of the most powerful diagnostic tools in modern astrophysics, providing unique constraints on the internal […]
Giovedì 30 aprile alle ore 15:00 Achille Nucita (Università del Salento, Lecce) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Lensing at all scales”. Abstract: Gravitational lensing has emerged as a powerful tool for probing the Universe across a vast range of physical scales. We give an overview of the gravitational lensing phenomena, from retro-lensing by black holes […]
Giovedì 23 aprile alle ore 12:00 Matteo Monelli (INAF – Osservatorio Astronomico d’Abruzzo) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Resolved stellar populations as tracers of galaxy evolution“. Abstract: Resolved stellar populations in Local Group galaxies provide fundamental information to understand galaxy formation and evolution, which can be constrained using their photometric, spectroscopic, and dynamical properties. Pulsating […]
Giovedì 16 aprile alle ore 12:00 Nicholas Devaney (University of Galway, Irlanda) terrà un seminario dal titolo “Direct imaging of exoplanets: techniques, instruments, and future prospects”. Abstract: This seminar will present an introduction to the direct imaging of exoplanets and review the current status of the field. While several thousand exoplanets have been discovered, primarily […]
Giovedì 26 marzo alle ore 12:00 Elena Valenti (European Southern Observatory, Garching – Germania) terrà un seminario dal titolo “From Questions to Answer: The Milky Way bulge with MOONS”. ABSTRACT: The formation of bulges remains one of the key open questions in galaxy evolution. Several mechanisms have been proposed – such as the dynamical instability […]
