Monday we'll be joined by an esteemed visitor, Dr. Jon Swift:
Dr. Swift was my graduate student mentor at UC Berkeley and we both ended up at the University of Hawaii together as postdocs, where he was a Sub-millimeter Array Postdoctoral (
SMA)
Fellow. His research focus is on
massive star formation and he uses interferometers to study molecular clouds where these behemoth baby stars are born.
Dr. Swift is also a
professional musician, photographer, poet and an accomplished surfer.
Come prepared with questions for our guest. We'll also be learning about blackbody radiation, so stay tuned for the worksheet, which will be posted this weekend.
