10:00 → 10:30 Athanasios Bakopoulos (NTUA Athens) “Compact Objects in Scalar-Tensor theories”

We analyse in all generality beyond Horndeski theories of shift symmetry in a static and spherically symmetric spacetime. By introducing four auxiliary functions, we write the field equations in a particularly compact form. We show that assuming additionally parity symmetry renders the system directly integrable giving multiple families of black-hole solutions. These have typically an asymptotically-flat Reissner-Nordstrom behaviour, and emerge in the presence of a canonical kinetic term for the scalar field. In the absence of parity symmetry, we present a general method which allows us to integrate the field equations by choosing the form of only one coupling function and an auxiliary quantity. This method leads to asymptotically flat and AdS black hole solutions with differing properties. We finally discuss disformal transformations within this context as a means of obtaining wormhole and black hole solutions in different theories.

Philippe Grandclement (LUTH Meudon)

"Fully consistent rotating black holes in the cubic Galileon theory"
Previous attempts to construct numerically rotating black holes in the cubic Galileon theory were based on the use of quasi-circular coordinates. However it was noticed at that time that this choice was inconsistent with the properties of the theory thus leading to (small) violations of some components of Einstein's equations. A formalism based on the maximal slicing condition and a spatial harmonic gauge enables to cure this problem and to obtain, for the first time, fully consistent rotating black hole solutions in this context. I will present the formalism that describes the black hole as an apparent horizon in equilibrium. The resulting system of equations is solved numerically using spectral methods. The properties of the obtained configurations will be discussed, in particular the violation of the zeroth-law of black hole thermodynamics.

11:30 Diffuse gamma-ray and neutrino background from Galactic Ridge

We show that the IceCube observation of the Galactic neutrino flux component confirms the hint of detection of neutrinos from the Galactic Ridge (the inner part of the Milky Way disk within the Galactic longitude |l|<30 degrees), previously reported by the ANTARES collaboration. This confirmation indicates that the bulk of the high-energy flux from the Galactic Ridge in multi-TeV band is produced by interactions of high-energy protons and atomic nuclei, rather than electrons. We show that both ANTARES and IceCube measurements agree with the Fermi-LAT telescope measurements of the gamma-ray emission from the Ridge. The multi-messenger (neutrino plus gamma-ray) spectrum of the Ridge over a broad energy range from 10 GeV to 10 TeV is consistent with a model of pion decay emission produced by a power-law distribution of protons with a slope Gamma~2.5, harder than that of the locally observed cosmic ray spectrum. This provides for the first time an unambiguous multi-messenger demonstration of the variability of the spectrum of cosmic rays across the Galactic disk.

15:00 Mind everywhere: the future of engineering

Imagine a world where each "thing" comes with AI built-in. Your phone video app, to assure that you enjoy uninterrupted service, intelligently buffers the video and requests a varying number of packets ahead, using predictive models about you, the video you are watching, and the world. The mobile base station allocates frequencies, roams phones, focuses beams intelligently to serve all phones in the cell and to minimize energy consumption. This system requires layered decision-making, persuasion more than direct control, continually learned and updated world models and policies that lead to local, individuated systems which will evolve during their lifetime and across generations. The system will be more similar to a living organism than to a machine. To design such systems, engineering will need to go through a paradigm shift, inspired by modern developmental biology, neuroscience, and cognitive science, themselves also recently going through paradigm shifts. I will sketch some of this latest developments, specifically Michael Levin's Technological Approach to Mind Everywhere (TAME) proposal and Mark Solms' Artificial Consciousness project, and how they inspire rethinking engineering.
