<p>Hello</p>
<p>On Friday the 22nd we have the next astronomy Seminar with Azadeh
Fattahi (Durham University) speaking at 10:30 via Zoom.<br>
</p>
<p dir="ltr"
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;line-height:1.38"><b>The
build-up of the Milky Way's halo</b></p>
<br>
<p dir="ltr"
style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;line-height:1.38">Abstract:
The hierarchical nature of galaxy formation in the standard model
of cosmology (LCDM) predicts a diffuse stellar halo component
around Milky Way-mass galaxies, formed from the accretion and
disruption of dwarf galaxies. Using cosmological hydrodynamical
simulations, I will discuss the radial build up of stellar halos
from the accreted dwarfs and will connect these results with
recent findings from the Gaia mission related to the major event
in the formation history of the Milky Way
(Gaia-Enceladus-Sausage). I will discuss whether this event is
unusual and whether it has any implications for dark matter
distribution and dark matter direct detection experiments. <br>
</p>
<p>We are trying something new this year with leaving the Zoom call
open after the formal hour of the seminar is up to allow the
speaker, if they wish, to chat informally with anyone who is
interested.</p>
Thanks<br>
<p> Chris and Tine</p>
<p>Christopher Usher is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
