Astronomy on Tap has landed in Kitchener-Waterloo!
Astronomy on Tap is a series of monthly events that take place in bars and pubs in more than 50 cities worldwide. They are aimed at the general public and consist of accessible, engaging presentations on space and science, designed to share astronomy in a fun, relaxed, informal environment.
Roman Gold is an Assistant Professor at CP3-Origins, University of Southern Denmark. He is a member of the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration and was awarded the 2022 EHT Early Career Award for his significant contribution and leadership in the geometric modelling process and the analysis of the Sgr A* source structure.
The new WCA-KPL Astronomy Talk series takes place on the last Wednesday of each month, and is jointly organized by the Waterloo Centre for Astrophysics and KPL.
Dark matter and dark energy drive the growth of our Universe, but the true nature of this strange "dark Universe" is still a mystery to scientists. Join us to hear Dr. Will Percival from the Waterloo Centre for Astrophysics, University of Waterloo speak about the Euclid satellite, due to launch in July 2023. Euclid will attempt to map out and explore our Universe, and help us to understand dark matter and dark energy like never before!
Prof. August E. (Gus) Evrard is a first generation computational cosmologist and educational innovator at the University of Michigan. Author of the first computational algorithm to enable multi-fluid cosmological simulations of galaxy formation, Prof. Evrard's astrophysical research aims to understand clusters of galaxies, the rarest and largest gravitationally bound systems in the universe.
