Friday Physics Colloquia

The Friday Physics Colloquia at the Department of Physics are open to all. An important goal for the colloquia is to be a meeting place between faculty and students to learn about interesting developments in physics.

Undergraduate students are especially encouraged to attend. Speakers are asked to keep the talks at a level targeting a master student in physics.

 

Spring 2023 schedule

 

January 13th @ 13:15-14:00 in R10 (D5-171)

Speaker:  Prof. Thomas Tauris, Aalborg University, Denmark

Title: Binary Compact Objects as Gravitational Wave Sources

Host: Manuel Linares, Astrophysics and Particle Physics Group, IFY

Abstract: In the first half of my talk, I will review the nature of gravitational waves: origin, physical characteristics, detection and history. In the second half of my talk, I will give examples of current research investigating the formation, characteristics, and number of binary compact object sources, including a few highlights of close binary star interactions. Finally, I will briefly discuss the future space-borne gravitational wave detector LISA, and also summarize my recent work on the spin orientations of colliding black holes.

Pizza will be served from 13.00 in D5-175

 

March 3rd @ 12:30-13:15 in R10 (D5-171)

Speaker:  Prof. Eirik Malinen, Department of Physics, University of Oslo

Title: Norwegian infrastructure for proton therapy research

Host: Kathrine Redalen, Professor and Deputy of research at the Department of physics

Abstract: Norway will have centers for proton therapy of cancer ready in Oslo and Bergen within early 2025. Both centers will have infrastructure for pre-clinical research, and open for experiments in biology, physics, technology and more. The talk will present the coming infrastructures and discuss research opportunities.

Pizza will be served from 12.15 in D5-175
