THE ART OF ASTROPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS. An elementary lecture on photon counting and S/N 2026-03-19Image Seminar THE ART OF ASTROPHYSICAL MEASUREMENTS. An elementary lecture on photon counting and S/N Date 26/03 Place Pere Pascual V5.07 Room Abstract: Have you ever dared to understand how many photons are detected by your camera when you are pointing the telescope to the sky? Is the action of the spectrograph fully understood when analyzing […]
Scalar fields around black hole binaries in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA 2026-03-19Image Seminar Scalar fields around black hole binaries in LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA Date 24/03 Place Pere Pascual V5.07 Room Abstract: Light scalar particles arise naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model and are compelling dark matter candidates. Gravitational interactions near black holes can trigger the growth of dense scalar configurations that, if sustained during inspiral, alter binary […]
Holographic turbulence, chaotic dynamics and horizon geometry 2026-03-19Image Seminar Holographic turbulence, chaotic dynamics and horizon geometry Date 23/03 Place Pere Pascual V5.07 Room Abstract: The fluid/gravity correspondence relates black hole dynamics in Anti-de Sitter space to fluid flow in a theory with a conformal equation of state. Our goal is to translate the long-standing problem of explaining anomalous scaling exponents of fluid velocity […]
A Different Look at Antiferroelectric Materials
2026-03-19
A new perspective article co-led by ICN2 proposes an updated definition of antiferroelectric materials. The authors’ expanded approach allows scientists to better describe the phenomena occurring in these systems, which are characterised by their unique ability to switch into a polar state under external voltage and have significant potential for applications in areas such as […]
