Dear Space Enthusiasts,
Krittika – The Astronomy Club of IIT Bombay proudly presents the KCAP Workshop 2025 (Krittika Computational Astronomy Projects), where astrophysics meets computation, and stars tell their secrets through data and algorithms! 🌌
Explore how computation helps decode Eclipsing Binaries and RR Lyrae stars, revealing the Universe’s distances and dynamics. From stellar pulsations to orbital light curves, see how data and simulations bring the cosmos to life. 🚀
This beginner-friendly workshop is your first step into KCAP, a series of hands-on projects where you’ll explore real astronomical data to uncover cosmic phenomena. It will also prepare you for upcoming KCAP assignments, enabling you to confidently enter the world of computational astronomy.
📅 Date: 26th October
⏰ Time: 5:00 PM
📍 Venue: LC001
Join us to:
💫 Learn the fundamentals of computational astronomy
💫 Use Python to explore real astronomical data
💫 Get a sneak peek into KCAP, Krittika’s winter research initiative
No prior coding or astronomy experience required, just curiosity and excitement to explore! ✨
