RIKEN iTHEMS-Kyoto University joint workshop on Asymptotics in Astrophysics and Cosmology

This joint workshop will bring together physicists and mathematicians who work with asymptotics and perturbation theory techniques. This includes theorists in cosmology, high energy physics, quantum gravity, solar physics, astrophysics.

Workshop overview
Over three days, there will be approximately 15 invited (1 hour slot) or contributed (20-30 min slot) talks about:
Fundamental asymptotics and perturbation theory techniques used in theoretical physics. Various applications of asymptotics and perturbation theory techniques in (wave transport or oscillation related) astrophysics and cosmology eigenvalue problems.

The workshop will also feature hands-on Mathematica and Python tutorials introducing:
Practical use of WKB methods in applied mathematics for any “Schrodinger-like” wave equations, Resummation methods in high energy theory, Deriving normal modes in stars, and their application to tidal evolution in binary star or planet systems, Eigenvalue problems in core collapse supernova theory.
