SUMMARY:General Meeting - December 2019
DESCRIPTION:Astro-cinematography from the Mount Laguna Observatory\n \nThe stars and galaxies that fill the night sky appear roughly today as they have throughout human history. However\, close inspection shows that these objects change\, sometimes dramatically\, over decades or months\, or occasionally over just minutes. The field of time-domain astronomy has arisen in recent years thanks to technological advances\, and we can now record these changes and reveal celestial mergers\, catastrophic explosions\, and the shadows of distant worlds. In this talk I will discuss our study of the time-variable universe from San Diego State University’s Mount Laguna Observatory including a new\, ultra-wide field imaging system that is beginning to survey the skies. \nRobert Quimby\n \nRobert Quimby is the Director of the Mount Laguna Observatory and an Associate Professor of Astronomy at San Diego State University. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Astrophysics from the University of California\, Berkeley in 1998 and then worked as a research assistant for the Supernova Cosmology Project before entering graduate school. Robert earned his masters and PhD in Astronomy from the University of Texas\, Austin in 2004 and 2006\, respectively. He went on to work as a postdoctoral scholar at Caltech and then at the Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe in Japan before joining the faculty at San Diego State University. Robert’s research interests include thermonuclear supernovae\, core-collapse supernovae\, the use of supernovae as cosmological probes\, detection of supernovae in the early universe\, gamma-ray bursts\, and other rare transient phenomena. For his research contributions\, Robert has received the Trumpler Award (Astronomical Society of the Pacific)\, the Hyer Award (American Physical Society)\, and\, a share of the 2015 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics. \nViews: 175

SUMMARY:Astrophysics SIG Meeting
DESCRIPTION: \n \nOur Astrophysics group meets to discuss and learn about how the universe works as a seminar group that bases its discussions on topics of interest introduced by the participants and the videos that are shown during the meetings on different aspects of astrophysics. The meetings are held in the classroom at the Heritage Museum of Orange County\, located at 3101 W. Harvard Ave.\, Santa Ana. The museum is located about a half-block west of Fairview; Harvard is about two miles north of the 405 Fwy\, between Warner and Edinger. The driveway is at the western end of the museum property; follow it around to the back of the property to the parking area; the classroom faces the parking area. All members are welcome – come join us for a stimulating evening! \n \nViews: 175
