The Center for Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (CCAPP) at the Ohio State University will host a Workshop on Stellar Intensity Interferometry from 22–24 May 2023.This purpose of this workshop is to gather the communities of theoretical and observational astronomers interested in stellar intensity and amplitude interferometry. The focus of this workshop is two-fold: (i) to explore and identify the most impactful scientific questions that stellar intensity interferometry can help answer; and (ii) to discuss the experimental configurations and techniques are best-suited to address these questions. These discussions may motivate new collaborative efforts between groups.
To optimize communication across a broad community of scientists, ample time for discussion is planned, and all presentation sessions will be plenary. The workshop will be held in person and prioritize in-person presentations, though remote (Zoom) connections will be available for those who cannot attend physically.
In-person attendance is limited to 50 participants, and there is no registration fee. Some support for student travel and local expenses is available; contact the organizers for more information: Mike Lisa (OSU) at lisa.1@osu.edu and Dave Kieda (Utah) at dave.kieda@utah.edu.

Gamma-ray Burst
On Sunday, Oct. 9, 2022, a pulse of intense radiation swept through the solar system so exceptional that astronomers quickly dubbed it the BOAT – the brightest of all time. The source was a gamma-ray burst (GRB), the most powerful class of explosions in the universe. Read more.
