Public Lecture 6-7pm Arts Lecture Theatre Prof. Gregor Tanner will begin by sharing what we know about Green?s life, his scientific interests, and how he developed the equations that now bear his name. Following Prof. Tanner, Sam Boote from the Green?s Windmill Trust will delve into the fascinating history of the mill, one of Nottingham?s major landmarks. Learn how it was built in the early-19th century, its role during its working years, and the building?s incredible journey from near demolition to full restoration. We hope to see you there!

Grant to attend to jAG/RAS summer school - Postdam Dear Fellows, As part of our growing connection to the German Astronomical Society (AG), we are thrilled to present an opportunity for up to 10 postgraduate UK-based astronomers to be subsidised to join the junge AG jAG/RAS summer school held in Postdam from the 2nd-4th June (details below). The application is now open, with awards of ?500 per student to help cover the costs of flights, travel and accommodation and is only open to postgraduate RAS fellows. The application form can be downloaded here: application form, and each case will be assessed based on the benefit to the applicant to support their career progression by attending this meeting, with priority given to those who have been unable to travel due to e.g. ill health over the course of their PhD. The deadline is 5pm on April 30th, with forms returnable to Nush Cole (ncole at ras.ac.uk). A short report will be required from each supported attendee after the meeting has concluded. Please feel free to distribute this opportunity to interested colleagues. RAS Council ----------------- The first summer school of the junge AG took place in June 2022, in Bonn. Since then, we have organised four summer schools, and here you can read more about all of them: https://astronomische-gesellschaft.de/en/working-groups/young-ag/jag_schools. The JAG summer schools offer an opportunity for early-career astronomers to meet their possible collaborators and employers, through a dedicated "job talks" session. Another important part of each jAG summer school are science highlights talks and workshops. Usually on the last day of school, the participants have an opportunity to introduce themselves and give a talk about their work. We have had many contributions from participants (see: https://astronomische-gesellschaft.de/en/working-groups/young-ag/jag_colloquium), and we encourage participants contributions for the incoming summer school in Potsdam as well. A joint summer school of RAS and jAG is an excellent opportunity for the early-career astronomers to extend their horizons and to get to know the prospects of Germany and the UK for potential future employment and collaborations. We, the AG Office, are at your disposal for any further questions and inquiries. We are looking forward to the joint jAG/RAS Summer School!

Kaluza-Klein tells us that we should expect to see (infinite) towers of massive spin-2 fields; more recently, theories involving exactly these kinds of fields - so-called multi-gravity theories - have undergone a resurgence, thanks to many interesting theoretical and phenomenological developments. These ideas are related: multi-gravity can be thought of as arising from higher dimensional GR upon discretising the extra dimension, although the strict correspondence between the two theories only holds when one does this *after* gauge fixing the higher dimensional lapse function. The lapse provides crucial structure to higher dimensional GR: it ensures full diffeomorphism invariance and enforces the Hamiltonian constraint. Thus, upon deconstruction, important information related to the extra dimension is missing in the resulting multi-gravity theory; consequently, one could never hope to recover GR in its entirety upon taking the appropriate continuum limit. Here, I develop an improved deconstruction procedure that maintains the free lapse, and show that the correct deconstructed theory should actually be multi-gravity equipped with additional dynamical scalar fields, whose field equations encode the higher dimensional Hamiltonian constraint. I use the example of Randall-Sundrum brane cosmology to demonstrate this correspondence explicitly. This opens up a number of interesting avenues for studies of new, viable theories of modified gravity, and potentially a means to probe higher dimensional physics through a lower dimensional lens. -------------------------------------------------- Link to join: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_OGM3OTk5NzQtZWEwZS00ZmUyLTk3MGUtZjFhY2M5OTU2MjI1%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2267bda7ee-fd80-41ef-ac91-358418290a1e%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22f3250584-4b5f-48fa-a897-08e77f2246b7%22%7d List of upcoming Seminars: 15th April: Kieran Wood (Nottingham) 22nd April: TBD 29th April: Daniel Panizo (Kyoto U) 6th May: Ameek Malhotra (Swansea) 13th May: David Trestini (Southampton) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- With Regards, -Elisa & Swagat Swagat Saurav Mishra, Postdoctoral Research Associate ?

In particular the cosmological bootstrap program provides a new perspective toward the investigation of cosmological correlators at the end of inflation. In this talk, I will first briefly review the progresses on bootstrapping phenomenologically relevant correlators, which include the primordial bispectra from single field, multi-field and cosmological colliders. After that, I will introduce new twists on both the theoretical development and also the observational tests. On the theory side, we extend the bootstrap analysis to reexamine more realistic inflation models in UV-complete setups. Interestingly, for a particular example of string inflation, we identify an unnoticed UV-sensitive signature in cosmological correlators. For observational test, guided by the bootstrap computation, we initiate a comprehensive search for the most significant signal of cosmological collider physics in the latest CMB data. -------------------------------------------------- Link to join: https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/19%3ameeting_OGM3OTk5NzQtZWEwZS00ZmUyLTk3MGUtZjFhY2M5OTU2MjI1%40thread.v2/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2267bda7ee-fd80-41ef-ac91-358418290a1e%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22f3250584-4b5f-48fa-a897-08e77f2246b7%22%7d [https://statics.teams.cdn.office.net/hashedassets-launcher/favicon/favicon-96x96.png] Join conversation teams.microsoft.com List of upcoming Seminars: 29th April: Daniel Panizo (Kyoto U) 6th May: Ameek Malhotra (Swansea) 13th May: David Trestini (Southampton) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- With Regards, -Elisa & Swagat Swagat Saurav Mishra, Postdoctoral Research Associate ?

Seminars begin next week (7th May) with Jim Dunlop visiting from Edinburgh, title and abstract below. Best, Jesse and Luke == Charting early galaxy formation and growth with JWST and ALMA The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is transforming our view of galaxy formation and evolution in the young Universe. I will provide an overview of the latest results from the PRIMER survey, the largest JWST Cycle-1 ?Galaxies? programme which, in combination with other public JWST imaging, is now enabling us to chart the emergence of the galaxy population back to within ~300 million years of the Big Bang. Specifically, I will present and discuss the first robust determination of the evolving UV galaxy luminosity function extending out to redshifts z~13, as well as new measurements of the galaxy stellar mass function reaching out to z~9. I will then interpret these results in the context of our current understanding of the evolving dark matter halo mass function and the efficiency with which galaxies are able to convert their baryons into stars. Finally, I will discuss new results on the early growth of dust-enshrouded star formation, and the prospects for future progress exploiting the combined power of JWST and the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). _______________________________________________ CAPT mailing list CAPT at lists.nottingham.ac.uk https://lists.nottingham.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/capt
