Nationality : Indian, & Permanent Resident of the USA Fluency in Languages other than English: My mother tongue is Bengali (one of the 23 official languages in India), although I have b een using English for more than 40 years and most of my formal education was in English. In addition, I have a limited command of Spanish, as well as a brief exp osure to Dutch.

EDUCATION: B.Sc. Physics (Hons) M.Sc. Physics Post M.Sc Associate (Bio-Physics) Ph.D (Astronomy) Lady Brab ourne College, Calcutta, India. University College of Science, Calcutta, India. Saha Inst. of Nuclear Phys., Calcutta, India. Indian Inst. of Science, Bangalore, India. Thesis Topic: "Low-Frequency Variability of Compact Extragalactic Radio Sources" First Class High 2nd Class 1979 1981 1982-83 1990

EMPLOYMENT: · 1990 ­ 1992: Post-doctoral Fellow, Netherlands Foundation for Research in Astronomy, Dwingeloo, The Netherlands. · 1992 ­ 2004: Research Associate, Arecib o Observatory. · 2005 ­ Present: Senior Research Associate, Arecib o Observatory.

SOFTWARE and DATA REDUCTION EXPERIENCE : Since 1983, I have b een using Fortran as my basic programming language. I have also b een using the IDL package for the last eight years, often developing codes within that environment. I have some familiarity with C and Unix Scripts. I have worked with PDP, Alliant, Vax/VMS, Unix, Linux, Solaris and Mac OSX op erating systems. I am also familiar with a variety of word processing and desk-top publishing software (b oth Windows and Apple-Macintosh based). I am conversant with html-based web-page developments. 1


For Astronomical data reductions, I have used various standard Single dish and Synthesis Telescop es' data reduction packages including IRAF, SDAS, CLASS AIPS, CASA, & AO/GBT IDL. In the recent past, I have b een using IDL extensively.

OBSERVER SUPPORT : At my current p osition, 50 % of my time is allocated for user supp ort and the other 50 % if available for my own research work. I am in charge of most of the Very Long baseline Interferometric work in my observatory supp ort role. In addition, all staff memb ers are allocated users' pro jects for which we are required to function as the "friend of the telescop e". We are also resp onsible for calibrating, commissioning new equipment as and when they b ecome available and keeping user manuals to date and tested. VLBI related work: The ma jor part of my observer supp ort work over the years have b een in the area of Arecib o's participation in Very Long Baseline Interferometry. Aided by Dr. Chris Salter, Arun Venkatraman, and the Electronics Department whenever needed, I have worked with the S2, VLBA4 and Mark5A & C and eVLBI systems making them available for the users. Since most VLBI data are taken in absentee mode, Dr. Chris Salter, and I have also b een involved in every asp ect of all VLBI observations, pre- and p ost-observation calibration and comunicating with the correlator and the P.Is. At each stage, we have also b een the staff scientists evaluating the needs of the users and planning successive upgrades. At present, We are commissioning the newly acquired "Roach-b oard based digital backend (RDBE)" from NRAO, and implementing its use with a Mrak5C recorder to enhance the Arecib o VLBI capabilities by a factor of four. We are also comssioning of an auxiliary antenna (12-meter diameter) to b e used together with the 305-m dish to provide much improved phase-referencing VLBI observations. Visiting (non-VLBI) Observer Supp ort: I have help ed many general sp ectroscopic observers as their "Friend of the Telescop e". This has often involved assisting/coaching visiting observers as to how to use the telescop e in the b est p ossible way for the particular pro ject, and later to guide them through their data reduction and calibration. If and when needed, I have also develop ed IDL-based codes for their sp ecific needs.

CURRENT RESEARCH : I. Evolution of Fundamental Constants : Collab orators: Nissim Kanekar, Jayaram Chengalur (GMRT, India) We have b een accumulating deep-integration sp ectra of the L-band OH satellite lines of the associated-absorb er in PKS 1413+135 at a redshift of z = 0.247. The conjugate nature of these lines implies that the resulting high-precision redshift measurements can b e used to prob e changes in some of the fundamental physical constants. In late 2008, it was found that the Arecib o data taken in 2006 had an erroneous velocity scale due to incorrect on-line Doppler tracking for the particular combination of sp ectrometer and observing procedure used at that time. By early 2009, this had b een corrected, and a further 40 hours of observations taken in May-June 2009 showed excellent agreement b etween the measured velocity values of the two satellite lines and WSRT measurements of the same quantities. The analysis of these 2009 Arecib o data imply, [G/G] = 1.03 ± 0.51 â 10-5 ,

where G gp 2 /µ , a combination of the fine structure constant , the electron-proton mass ratio µ me /mp and the proton gyromagnetic ratio gp . This is an improvement on the value of [G/G] = 1.9 ± 1.1 â 10-5 derived from the earlier WSRT data. A weighted average of the WSRT and AO results gives [G/G] = 1.18 ± 0.46 â 10-5 , yielding 2.6 evidence for a change in , µ or gp from the ep och at which we see PKS 1413+135, i.e. over a look-back time of 2.9 Gyr. A pap er has b een submitted to ApJ for the publication of this result. Efforts are now underway to obtain further integration at Arecib o and improve the statistical significance of this result. I I. High Resolution Mapping of Methanimine in Arp220 : Collab orators: Drs. Chris Salter, Rob ert Minchin (Arecib o) , Danna Qassim (NAU, REU-2009) During the summer of 2009, we mentored an REU student, Danna Qassim of Northern Arizona University, and worked on a pro ject of milliarcsecond MERLIN mapping of Methanimine in Arp220. The data cub e produced surprising evidence for a compact region of methanimine emission in the eastern nucleus of this double-nuclear starburst galaxy, in which the western comp onent has b een considered to harb or an AGN. This work was presented at the AAS meeting in January 2010. I I I. Cm-wavlength Molecular Lines in Galactic and Extragalactic Environments : I am also involved in a numb er of observing pro jects searching for cm-wavelength molecular lines in Arp220-like ULIRGs, and galactic star forming regions. Recently, these searches have b een extended to the 700 800 MHz band, utilizing the newly installed UHF receiver at Arecib o. IV. GALFACTS, a full-Stokes continuum "all sky" survey: GALFACTS is a full-Stokes continuum "all sky" (covering the declination range of ­0.8 to +37.8 deg) mapping program at 1.4 GHz currently on-going at the Arecib o Observatory. It is a collaborative program involving many scientists from various countries, with diverse in-depth scientific ob jectives led by different groups. (See http://www.ucalgary.ca/ras/GALFACTS for more details). When complete, GALFACTS will have covered a sky area of ab out 4.0 sr. and is exp ected to detect ab out 230,000 discrete extragalactic sources with flux densities greater than 10 mJy/b eam. With the planned observing strategy of GALFACTS, each p oint in the sky is visited twice, with the interval b etween visits spanning 1 to 28 days. Thus, given the large numb er involved, extremely interesting statistics on short-term variability prop erties of discreet radio sources can b e obtained. In addition, comparison with the accurate flux densities of NVSS (NRAO VLA Sky Survey) will provide variability information on a time scale of 10 yr. The sky has never b efore b een searched systematically for variations to this depth, and over such a large area. Beginning last summer, I have started developing algorithms and codes for variability studies. My collab orators in this work are , Dr. Chris salter (Arecib o) , and two REU students, Scott Barenfeld, and Trey Wenger (see b elow).

EXPECTATIONS FOR FUTURE WORK : Over the last nineteen years, I worked at this National facility (Arecib o Observatory) which has seen many ma jor discoveries. I have played my part as sincerely as p ossible in making that (at least some of it) p ossible. I am now excited to bring in all my exp ertise and basic understanding of Astronomy to JWST's science goals. Among the ma jor areas of astronomy where JWST will have transformational effects, I am particularly interested in the pro jects related to the "origin of life". At Arecib o, using cm-wavelength sp ectroscopy, we detected a few pre-biotic molecules in three far off istar-forming galaxies. I consider that to b e the most exciting pro ject that I have b een so far involved with. In my role as a supp ort analyst, I would b e particularly tuned to supp orting any work b oardering along that area of research.
