DESCRIPTION:What exactly is dark matter and what do we know about its natur
 e? Join our lecture to learn about how astronomers search for dark matter 
 signals near stars and planets!\n\nLocation: Hewlett Teaching Center\, Roo
 m 200 & YouTube\n\nTitle: Dark Matter Searches with Astrophysical Objects\
 n\nSpeaker: Dr. Rebecca Leane (KIPAC/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory)
 \n\nAbstract: While multiple lines of evidence suggest the existence of da
 rk matter in the Universe\, the theory describing it remains completely un
 known and requires new search ideas to resolve its identity. It turns out 
 that stars and planets can be ideal playgrounds to discover dark matter. I
 n this lecture\, Dr. Rebecca Leane will review a range of dark matter sear
 ches using celestial objects\, including exoplanets\, solar-system planets
 \, the Sun\, and the Earth. She will discuss different search strategies\,
  their opportunities and limitations\, and the interplay of regimes where 
 different celestial objects are optimal dark matter detectors.\n\nThis eve
 nt will be offered in a hybrid format. Live stream URL can be found at the
  bottom of the EventBrite registration confirmation email.
