Astromony in AI Time-Domain Astrophysics, Accelerated with AI
- Josh Bloom
- Bailed early… bad
13 April 2026 Monday
Colloq: High-z Transient with JWST (Armin Rest)
- supernovae: Probes of high-energy physics ?
- Why is there more variability in Core collapse supernova ? vs Type IA?
- Not good

Colloq: The physics of protein diffusion controls how cells respond to electric fields
(Brian Camley)
- Why: Do we care about cell motility ? Sensing limits Injuries create an electric field towards the wound… known for 100years 10-100 mV / mm
- Good speaker / Good slides … Not sure what I think about the science

W-mass seminar: https://indico.cern.ch/event/1441575/
- Subset of 2016 data 16.8/fb (pu = 30)
- Only use inner tracker to fit muon pt
- Only use muon pt to fit mW: (Different systematics have different shapes)
- 3D fit pt/eta/charge
- Effectively Do dedicated alignment with J/psi include local terms for Bfield distortion and material model
- Constrain theory uncertainties directly with W data
