SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Christoph Weniger
DESCRIPTION:Low-cost high-fidelity data analysis with simulation-based inference\nThe increasing volume and sophistication of astrophysical and cosmological data challenge traditional analysis methods\, which often struggle with high-dimensional models and complex observations as seen for instance in gravitational waves\, supernova cosmology\, and gamma-ray data. Highlighting these limitations\, this talk explores how deep learning and simulation-based inference can offer scalable and effective solutions. Despite promising advances\, there are substantial challenges to fully realize the potential of these technologies. This talk will conclude with the crucial next steps in incorporating these techniques more effectively into astrophysical and cosmological data analysis.

SUMMARY:ECAP Seminar: Jamie Holder
DESCRIPTION:Space Lasers and Aliens: Searching for optical transients with Gamma-ray Light Buckets\nImaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs) are among the largest and fastest optical telescopes in the world\, ideally suited to searching for nanosecond-timescale optical transients. These could be astrophysical in nature\, or even associated with signals transmitted by extra-terrestrial civilizations. I will describe the methods used to extract such signals from data recorded by the VERITAS telescopes. A definitive test of these techniques is provided by measurement of a LIDAR on board the CALIPSO satellite\, which also holds promise as a unique calibration device for IACTs. I will also discuss the potential of the converse approach – using telescopes designed for SETI to do gamma-ray astronomy.
