SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Iris Gebauer
DESCRIPTION:Indirect Dark Matter Searches and Cosmic Ray Transport in the Era of AMS\nThe Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is installed on the International Space Station (ISS) since May 2011. AMS is a complex particle detector designed to precisely measure the fluxes of cosmic rays between 0.5 GeV and a few TeV. The physics goals of the experiment include the search for possible signals of dark matter annihilation and hints for primordial antimatter in the fluxes of cosmic rays. As of recently\, new calorimetric experiments like CALET and DAMPE begin to shed even more light on the matter component in cosmic rays with high statistics measurements up to TeV energies.\nA plethora of precision results is emerging from these experiments. Many results challenge our understanding of galactic cosmic ray transport. This talk provides an overview over some of the most exiting and often surprising results from AMS\, CALET and DAMPE. I will discuss their impact on our understanding of the origin and transport of galactic cosmic rays and their contribution to indirect dark matter searches.

SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Sara Buson
DESCRIPTION:High-energy neutrinos from AGN?\nWith the advent of multi-messenger observatories\, neutrino astronomy is turning into a helpful tool to investigate and put limits on the contribution of the known astrophysical objects to the diffuse neutrino background. Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) have long been suggested among the candidate sources of cosmic high-energy neutrinos. If hadronic processes operate in the AGN jets\, a lot can be learnt by combining neutrino observations with the putative accompanying electromagnetic information. This is motivated by the fact that both radiations may be pictured in the same astrophysical particle-cascades scenario\, cascades that are ultimately originated by cosmic rays. While to date no neutrino point sources have been identified at high confidence\, a promising ground for discovery could be the search for transient and variable neutrino/electromagnetic sources\, in which case the atmospheric neutrino and muon backgrounds can be reduced by taking advantage of time- and space-coincidence. Recent outcomes in this field will be presented.

SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Siegfried Glenzer
DESCRIPTION:Exploring extreme states of matter with an ultra-bright X-ray free-electron laser\nIn this talk\, we will review recent progress in high-energy density physics using the world’s brightest X-ray source\, the Linac Coherent Light Source\, SLAC’s free electron X-ray laser. These experiments investigate laser-driven matter in extreme conditions where powerful X-ray scattering and imaging techniques have been applied to resolve ionic interactions at atomic (Ångstrom) scale lengths and to visualize the formation of dense plasma states [1\, 2]. The major research areas include dynamic compression experiments of solid targets to determine structural properties and characterize phase transitions at conditions approaching the interior of planets. Another area studies extreme fields produced by high-intensity radiation where fundamental questions of strongly excited solids can be investigated [3]. Each of these areas takes advantage of the unique properties of the probing beam. They include small foci for achieving high intensity or high spatial resolution\, high photon or electron flux for dynamic structure factor measurements in single shots\, and high spectral bandwidth to resolve plasmon (Langmuir) waves or ion acoustic waves in dense plasmas. We will present new experimental data demonstrating several novel studies that test our fundamental understanding of matter in extreme conditions with data of sufficient accuracy to support or refute theoretical approximations. These advances have led to significant international competition and laid out the path for facility upgrades to explore ever more extreme states of matter. \n[1]  P. Sperling\, E. J. Gamboa\, H. K.

SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Markus Demleitner
DESCRIPTION:The VO And Why It Matters To You\nIn the most technical words\, the Virtual Observatory (VO) is an effort to enable uniform and efficient access to astronomical data. With more glitz\, it is like the Web and Google\, only for data. In this talk I will try to convince you that what sounds tedious and boring in reality is exciting and useful to your research. Thus\, after some motivation filling in the gaps in the above definitions\, I will go on describing some of the key VO technologies and ways to use them – right now\, from your desktop. I will close with an invitation to publish your data to the VO as well. \nSlides available at http://docs.g-vo.org/er.pdf.
