SUMMARY:CIERA Colloquium: Pawan Kumar: "The Physics of FRBs and Their Use as Cosmological Probes"
UID:641888@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:This talk will explore our current understanding of the fast radio burst (FRB) radiation mechanism\, highlighting key observational findings and the constraints they place on theoretical models. I will also discuss how FRBs can serve as powerful probes of cosmology and the reionization era\, providing unique insights into the early universe.  Pawan Kumar\, Professor\, University of Texas\, Austin  Host: Fred Rasio
