Younited, will join with
students via Zoom from Israel, giving us important insight into their
experiences duringt the Gaza War.

Happy Thanksgiving
December 4 - Dr. Matt Malkin
Dr.
Malkin's research at UCLA has
focused on the two primary sources of energy in the Universe since the Big Bang:
fusion power in stars and accretion power from massive black holes. While there
is still considerable uncertainty in the energy production in the current
Universe, the ultimate goal is to trace the cosmic history of these power
sources all the way back to their beginnings. The galaxies of most interest thus
appear small and faint, and have their emission redshifted to much longer
wavelengths than they were initially produced. Furthermore, much of their energy
is released in dusty environments. The combination of large redshifts and dust
reddenings means that the major problems in observational cosmology must be
addressed with a broad multiwavelength suite of observations, which includes
sensitive measurements at long wavelengths, where dust absorption is minimized.
Rotary is a leadership organization made up of local business, professional and civic leaders who meet
regularly to get to know each other, form friendships and, through that, get things done in our local community. Rotary is the world's
oldest and largest service organization (founded in 1905).
