Talk: Extragalactic B-fields from Gamma Rays
Speaker: Tom Weisgarber (Chicago)
- Voids: <1nG; filaments: ~0.3 µG; galaxies: ~1 µG; clusters: 10 µG. No detections of B-fields in voids.
- Gamma rays interact with the extragalactic background light (EBL) and create electron-positron pairs, which then cascade down to create more gamma rays. This cascade is then observed with some opening angle. Pair production and inverse Compton … Continue Reading ››
WREK Interview
A few weeks ago, I was interviewed by Charlie Bennett, who runs the North Avenue Lounge show on Georgia Tech's student radio station. I had a great time during the show. We chatted about my homecoming to Georgia Tech, my research, and the construction of the visualization lab for our group. The show will … Continue Reading ››
