NASA's Juno mission has been providing a rush of new insights into Jupiter, our solar system's largest planet. Since arriving at Jupiter in 2016, Juno has explored the depths of Jupiter's complex, stormy atmosphere, and has given us new views on Jupiter's interior structure, its complex magnetic field, and its past evolution. This talk will focus on several of the main science highlights from the mission.
Wykład w języku angielskim. Możliwe będzie zadawanie pytań i wygłaszanie komentarzy po polsku (te będą tłumaczone na żywo).

T Corona Borealis (T CrB) is a red giant/white dwarf binary system that undergoes massive outbursts once every 80 years, and the next eruption is imminent. The system will rapidly increase in brightness by a factor of over 1000, become visible to the unaided eye, and it will be the brightest nova outburst observed since Nova 1500 Cyg in 1975 -- but peak brightness will only last several days. I will review the mechanics of mass transfer and ignition in recurrent nova eruptions, what we know about T CrB's activity and previous eruptions, as well as how to locate and view T CrB in the sky.
