The 20 22 CAP Herzberg Medal is awarded to Daryl Haggard\, in recognition of her leadership role in the development of multimessenger astronomy\, and the g round-breaking discovery of the electromagnetic signal accompanying gravit ational waves from colliding neutron stars. Read the full article on their awards on The Reporter website.\n\nBoth will be giving virtual talks for the CAP this January.\n\nCharles Gale\, 'Exploring excited nuclear matter and characterizing the quark-gluon plasma'\n\nFriday\, January 27\, 11:30- 12:15\n\n'Experiments involving the high-energy collision of nuclei have r evealed the existence of an exotic phase of strongly interacting matter: t he quark-gluon plasma. Those studies have entered a characterization phase that probes the underlying theory – Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) – in reg ions far out of equilibrium. We discuss the probes and the theory that ena ble us to learn about the behaviour of the quark-gluon plasma\, its theore tical modeling\, and what we can learn about QCD under extreme conditions of temperature and energy density. The probes include QCD jets\, real and virtual photons\, and final state hadrons. We show how recent progress in the field is achieved through a large data-driven program using  Bayesian techniques.'\n\nZoom link: https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/ \n\nDaryl Harrard\, 'An Exciting New Era of Gravitational Wave and Multi-m essenger Astrophysics'\n\nMonday\, January 30\, 11:45-12:30\n\n'How do bla ck holes and neutron stars interact? What happens when they collide? New d iscoveries from gravitational wave and electromagnetic observatories are r evolutionizing this field and starting to answer these fundamental questio ns. In this talk I will describe how my 91şÚÁĎÍř team and I search for elect romagnetic counterparts to gravitational wave emitters and deploy innovati ve software to rapidly classify alerts and perform spectral analysis on ne wly discovered kilonovae. I will also discuss our efforts to grow the Cana dian multi-messenger community and cement our role as an international lea der in this exciting new field.'\n\nZoom link: https://can01.safelinks.pro tection.outlook.com/\n DTSTART:20230127T160000Z DTEND:20230130T190000Z SUMMARY:CAP Medal talks by professors Charles Gale and Daryl Haggard URL:/science/channels/event/cap-medal-talks-professors -charles-gale-and-daryl-haggard-345170 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
