Talk Cosmic to Me, the 12th edition !

🕵️‍♀️ Does it take two to tango? Double star systems and their interactions

👩‍🚀 Se will talk to you: Ana Escorza (PhD Student KU Leuven and ULB)

✍️ + Live Drawings by Thomas Diot (https://www.instagram.com/thomas_diot_illustration/)

Language of the talk: English

Free Entrance ! NEW ! If you like what we do, now you can also donate a few euros via the eventbrite plateform

About half of the stars in our Galaxy have companions that can strongly affect their evolution. A rich zoo of objects emerges from interactions in binary systems, including supernovae and gravitational wave sources and some less energetic outcome like chemically peculiar stars and gorgeous planetary nebulae. But, you know, science is all about trying to understand new things... And the details of this interaction are still unknown and the observed properties of all these binary interaction products cannot be accounted for by models! What's for sure, it's that a better understanding of these objects will improve our knowledge of binary interaction physics.

🙋‍♀️ Throughout her talk, Ana Escorza will take you on a journey through the universe to understand how those stars dance together!

After that, filled with spacy thoughts, our illustrator of the evening, Thomas Diot, will invite you in his universe with his live drawings. Watch, have a chat with your neighbour or with Ana and enjoy the rest of your evening with us!

Bring your pal, park your spaceship and join us in the beautiful Le Flow bar for this nice and cozy cosmic evening 🍻
