Arcs, Cavities, and Outflows: The Dynamic Drama of Star Formation
Cody Hall
Prof. Shantanu Basu, CITA, University of Toronto
April 16, 2025
2:00pm - 3:00pm
We are now firmly within the ALMA-inspired era of star formation studies. We have abundant high sensitivity and resolution observations of star-disk-outflow systems as well as the ability to perform complex high-resolution plasma astrophysics simulations of their formation. I review recent three-dimensional nonideal MHD simulations…
Near, far, wherever you are: Dwarf galaxies across a range of distances and resolutions
Cody Hall
Mia de los Reyes, Amherst College
April 23, 2025
2:00pm - 3:00pm
Abstract: Low-mass “dwarf” galaxies were probably the first galaxies in the universe to form, and they are the most numerous type of galaxy today. However, due to dwarf galaxies’ low luminosities, much of our understanding of low-mass galaxy evolution has been based on the dwarf galaxies…

Steacie Prize for Natural Sciences: Lecture by Professor Jo Bovy
May 07, 2025
The Milky Way in the era of large surveys For over a hundred years, the Milky Way has been the nexus between many fields of astrophysics, linking together investigations into the formation of planetary systems and stars to studies of galactic evolution, cosmology, and…
