Monthly Club Meetings

Probing the Universe with galaxy clusters: New windows from new technologies
Dr Mark Bautz
Thursday, Jan 13, 2011 at 8:00 PM

Our speaker, Dr. Mark Bautz, will discuss recent observations of galaxy clusters that are beginning to provide new information about the history of the cosmos.  A key to this progress has been the study of these objects using telescopes operating at millimeter, visible, infrared and X-ray wavelengths.  Dr. Bautz will outline the potential impact of these results on our understanding of cosmology, and review some of the new technologies that have made them possible, concluding with a summary of future prospects for this line of research.
