    Triangulum Galaxy Unveiled

    Wed at 07:00 PM
    Online   Open to Public

    Zoom and In-person at UW Physics Building. Please join us for an evening with Dr. Adam Smercina, postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Astronomy at the University of Washington. Dr. Smercina's research includes how galaxies form and evolve, from the smallest dwarf galaxies to large galaxies like the Milky Way. Using gas content, resolved stellar populations, and satellite populations of galaxies roughly the size of our Milky Way to understand how they change over time, ... more

    How the Milky Way was Formed

    Wed at 07:30 PM
    Open to Public

    We know that the spatial distribution of matter just after the Big Bang was nearly uniform, yet at the present day it is far from uniform. We live in a galaxy that is much denser than most regions in the Universe-and in a very dense place within our galaxy. UW astrophysicist Matt McQuinn will describe the physically intuitive steps by which small matter fluctuations transformed into galaxies, stars, and planets. He'll show computer simulations which do a remarkable job at producing ... more
