SUMMARY:Atlantic GR Seminar: Kam To Billy Chan (MUN)
DESCRIPTION:The Reissner-Nordstrom Near Horizon Geometry is a Tangent Spacetime\nThe near horizon geometry (NHG) of an extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole is obtained in conventional global AdS coordinates and in the coordinates of the parent spacetime. Geometrical objects\, specifically Killing vectors and spacetime points\, are mapped from the boundary and horizon of the NHG into the parent spacetime coordinates. The outcome is that the NHG is a tangent spacetime to the extremal Reissner-Nordstrom black hole’s degenerate horizon and that the degenerate horizon does not bifurcate. A generalization is made for N-dimensional Reissner-Nordstrom black holes. This work is an extension of Sean Stotyn’s A Tale of Two Horizons. \nThe Atlantic General Relativity 2020 online postdoc/student seminar series is in the tradition of the annual AGR meetings\, providing a forum not only for students and postdocs to present their research and make professional contacts but also to facilitate connections and collaborations between all Atlantic Canadian relativists. The series is student-organized and includes all areas of classical and quantum gravity. Talks will occur on the last Wednesday of every month\, with each session consisting of two 30 minute talks. If you would like to attend\, please email the organizers for connection details.

SUMMARY:AARMS COVID-19 Seminar: Karen Phillips (Dept of Health and Wellness\, PEI) and Javier Sanchez (Atlantic Veterinary College\, UPEI)
DESCRIPTION:The Covid-19 modeling experience in Prince Edward Island\nSince the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic\, Atlantic Canada and particularly PEI\, has experienced a low number of cases with limited community spread. This epidemiological situation has created some unique and challenging opportunities for the modelers to address the questions of interest posed by public health officers. \nA simple SEIR model was developed to assess the magnitude of the consequences in terms of hospitalizations\, PPE\, and bed requirements under a set of scenarios that could potentially happen if community spread starts to occur in the region. The model was based on differential equations and included features such as reduction of contact rates\, self isolation\, contact tracing\, and quarantine. It also allows assessing the impact on different testing strategies and test requirements to control the outbreak. \nAlso\, a Bayesian model was also developed to assess the probability that the province was free of virus circulation given the testing carried out by the government. \nDuring this seminar will discuss how the model and modeling team addressed some of the questions of interest and describe in [some] details the mathematical models developed by the team. \n\nDr. Karen Phillips is an Epidemiologist at the Chief Public Health Office\, Prince Edward Island Department of Health and Wellness\nDr. Javier Sanchez is a Professor of Epidemiology at the Atlantic Veterinary College\, University of Prince Edward Island\n\nThis is a virtual zoom seminar.  If you would like to attend\, please email the organizers for connection details.
