SUMMARY:Lecture: The amazing neutron star merger GW170817
DESCRIPTION:The Mathematics and Physics section of the Shevchenko Scientific Society invite you to a lecture by Dr. Melania Nynka\, X-ray astronomer\, postdoctoral researcher at the McGill Space Institute\, studying our universe using cutting-edge space-based telescopes. She is broadly interested in our complex and crowded Galactic Center. \n \n \nThe LIGO and Virgo observatories have been detecting gravitational waves from two colliding black holes since 2015.  These groundbreaking detections have already earned a Nobel Prize in Physics!  But on August 17\, 2017\, the LIGO observatory detected the first ever gravitational wave emission of a neutron star merger and yet again dramatically changed the landscape of astrophysics. \nNeutron stars\, or two extremely dense cores left over after supernovae\, produce both gravitational and electromagnetic radiation when they collide together.  The neutron star merger was so powerful that light from every wavelength – radio\, IR\, visible\, UV\, X-ray and gamma-ray – dramatically erupted in the sky\, and a third of the professional astronomy community and 70 world-class observatories around the globe raced to capture a detection. \nDr. Nynka is part of a small team at McGill University which tracking the evolution of the merger using powerful space-based X-ray telescopes.  The data they collect\, especially when combined with other wavelengths\, help deepen our understanding of the universe.  We now know how neutron star mergers create\, for example\, most of the metals we use in jewelry and construction.  Dr. Nynka will first give a brief overview of X-ray telescopes and her experiences helping built an X-ray optic. She will then focus on both the astrophysical processes the neutron star merger has revealed as well as the unanswered questions we are still trying to answer. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Book launch of “Ukraine’s Quest for Identity: Embracing Cultural Hybridity in Literary Imagination\, 1991-2011” (2018) by Maria G. Rewakowicz
DESCRIPTION:Ukraine’s Quest for Identity: Embracing Cultural Hybridity in Literary Imagination\, 1991–2011 is the first study that looks at the literary process in post-independence Ukraine comprehensively and attempts to draw the connection between literary production and identity construction. In its quest for identity Ukraine has followed a path similar to other postcolonial societies\, the main characteristics of which include a slow transition\, hybridity\, and identities negotiated on the center-periphery axis. This monograph concentrates on major works of literature produced during the first two decades of independence and places them against the background of clearly identifiable contexts such as regionalism\, gender issues\, language politics\, social ills\, and popular culture. It also shows that Ukrainian literary politics of that period privileges the plurality and hybridity of national and cultural identities. By engaging postcolonial discourse and insisting that literary production is socially instituted\, Maria G. Rewakowicz explores the reasons behind the tendency toward cultural hybridity and plural identities in literary imagination. Ukraine’s Quest for Identity will appeal to all those keen to study cultural\, social and political ramifications of the collapse of the Soviet empire in Eastern Europe and beyond.

SUMMARY:Celebration of the 20th anniversary of Krytyka
DESCRIPTION:  \nKrytyka was founded in 1997 by Harvard University professor of Ukrainian literature George G. Grabowicz\, and a few Ukrainian intellectuals. Krytyka took as its inspiration The New York Review of Books\, The Times Literary Supplement and the Polish\, Paris-based journal Kultura. The publication continues to offer detailed and research-based analyses of historical\, political\, and cultural developments in Ukraine\, Russia\, and Eastern Europe; its main audience consists of intellectuals\, university faculty\, and graduate students. Krytyka is an avant-garde journal for discussions on issues otherwise less discussed in the Ukrainian context: historical memory\, xenophobia\, gender and sexual discrimination\, revisions of the literary canon\, problems of Ukrainian scholarship and education\, and so on.

SUMMARY:Book launch “The Great West Ukrainian Prison Massacre of 1941.A Sourcebook.” (Amsterdam University Press. 2016)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Motyl will present the book “The Great West Ukrainian Prison Massacre of 1941.A Sourcebook.” (Amsterdam University Press. 2016)\, edited by Alexander J. Motyl and Ksenia Kiebuzynski. The Great West Ukrainian Prison Massacre оf 1941 is important for several reasons. First\, although it is one of the greatest atrocities committed\, by the Soviet state\, the Massacre is largely unknown. Second\, the Massacre is critical to an understanding of state-sponsored mass killings in the twentieth century and to hu­man rights violations more generally. Third\, the Massacre is central to making sense of Ukrainian and Polish attitudes toward World War II\, Germany\, the Soviet Union\, and Jews. How nationally conscious Ukrainians and Poles responded to World War II and the Holocaust cannot be understood without an appreciation of the magnitude of the trauma of the Massacre of 1941.
