[Theory-seminars] JLab Colloquium S. Reddy "Neutron stars" TODAY 3PM

[Christian Weiss]

Please take note of the JLab Colloquium by Sanjay Reddy (U. Washington)
on neutron stars today at 3 PM (see below). Sanjay is a theorist working
in nuclear and neutrino astrophysics and low-energy nuclear structure.
He is scheduled to arrive at JLab around noon and will be here for the 
rest of the day.

Neutron Stars in the Multi-Messenger Era: Extreme Matter and Extreme Phenomena

Sanjay Reddy
University of Washington

Abstract

Neutron stars are some of the most extreme astrophysical phenomena. In this talk, I will discuss how the properties of matter at extreme density shape observable aspects of these phenomena. I highlight the role of nuclear and neutrino physics in core collapse supernovae, neutron star mergers, nucleosynthesis, and transient phenomena observed in accreting neutron stars and magnetars. Quantitative predictions for future multi-messenger signals (photon, neutrino and gravitational wave) are within reach, and these predictions rely on combining advances in theory, simulation and terrestrial experiments.
