Compact Object Mergers and the Origin of Heavy Elements

Tuesday, October 4, 2022 - 11:00am

Dr. Sanjana Curtis (University of Chicago)

When compact object binaries involving neutron stars merge together, they eject neutron-rich matter that undergoes r-process nucleosynthesis, synthesizing some of the heaviest elements in our Universe and powering an electromagnetic transient called a kilonova.

The connection between the escape of ionizing photons and galaxy properties at z~3

Friday, October 7, 2022 - 11:00am to 12:00pm

Tony Pahl (UCLA)

The connection between the escape fraction of ionizing photons (f_esc) and the properties of galaxies, such as stellar mass, age, star-formation rate (SFR) surface density, and dust content, are key inputs for reionization models, but many of these relationships remain untested at high redshift.
