ALT Abstract: Fast radio bursts are intense blasts of energy that happens within thousandths of a second. Their origins remain mysterious, but their existence has opened up numerous new possibilities of research in astronomy. Let us follow the path of a fast radio burst along its journey traveling to us and take a look at what the radio waves have to experience before they reach us. Specifically, Dr. Wu will make use of augmented reality to create some fun applications to show off the physics in this talk. Speaker bio: Xiaohan Wu graduated with a PhD degree from Harvard and is now a postdoctoral fellow at the Canadian Institute of Theoretical Astrophysics. Her research spans a wide range of topics, including galaxy formation, cosmology, reionization, the first stars, and the cosmic microwave background. She now works with the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment on fast radio bursts.
