Contact Address 1. Scientific Objectives Last years we have seen a remarkable progress of observations by air-borne and satellite-loaded detectors as well as large ground-based telescopes. Cosmological parameters have been precisely determined and hierarchical large-scale structures have been unraveled in detail. Observations of supernovae and gamma ray bursts up to cosmological distances together with possible detections of magnetars and quark stars have revealed the variety of high energy astrophysical phenomena much beyond our expectations. The theoretical understanding, on the other hand, is currently far behind these observational advances. 2. Organizing Committee

Hot On the Gas Trail of Ordinary Dark Matter Chicago - August 3, 2000 - Astronomers analyzing data from the Far Ultraviolet Spectrographic Explorer satellite have found the interstellar signposts that may lead them to the direct detection of ordinary dark matter in the universe, one of the major quests of modern astronomy. They also have eliminated the possibility that one leading suspect molecular hydrogen accounts for any significant portion of dark matter, the composition of which remains a big mystery. Various lines of evidence have led astronomers to believe that 90 ercent of ordinary matter in the universe, matter made of neutrons and protons, is dark, invisible to them. Now it seems likely, on theoretical grounds, that a significant portion of dark matter may consist of million-degree gas. "We have the equipment to test this theory, one way or the other," York said. "The hot gas is the last great hope. If that doesn't turn out right, then we'll have to start over again." These results, which are based on three months of observations targeting 20 objects outside the galaxy, appear in a special issue of the Astrophysical Journal Letters. The FUSE science team, led by Johns Hopkins University's Warren Moos, includes York at Chicago and other astronomers at Johns Hopkins; University of California, Berkeley; University of Colorado; University of Wisconsin, Madison; Harvard University; NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Canada, France, and elsewhere.

Analog and Asimov's collections are now available at AUDIBLE.COM Key Word Search: Analog Science Fiction Analog is now available in electronic formats at The Alternate View John G. Cramer LSST: The Dark Matter Telescope Recent astrophysical results tell us that normal matter, the stuff of which galaxies, stars, planets, and people are made, accounts for only about 4.4% of the mass-energy in our Universe. The rest of the Universe’s mass-energy is 23% dark matter (ghost particles of some unknown kind) and 73% dark energy (energy stored in the vacuum itself). One of the main missions of the LSST is to gather images that tell us more about the dark matter. It seems strange that a telescope would be designed to look at dark matter, stuff that emits no light and is known to us only because of its gravitational effects. But those gravitational effects carry their own signature–the gravitational lensing of distant galaxies. In a previous column, "The Rainbows of Gravity," ( Analog , November 1988) I described the way that gravity bends light to produce "Einstein rings" and related streak-images–highly distorted ring-like images of background stars and galaxies. Gravitational lensing tends to stretch and distort the image and can produce the illusion of luminous objects that appear to be millions of light-years in length. Such distortions can be systematically used to get at the underlying mass that produced them.

Distant galaxies As we look back over 2000 years of astrophysics, we see two enormous peaks of scientific achievement. One is at the beginning of the epoch - the Greek world of Aristotle, Aristarchus and Ptolemy. The other peak is where we are standing now. The achievements in this century, and particularly during the last 50 years, have been immense. Around 330 BC Aristotle recognized that the Sun and Moon are spheres, and that their orbits around the Earth are circular. He showed that the movements of the planets could be constructed from a combination of several circular motions. But after carefully considering the idea that the Sun was at the centre of the orbits, he opted for the Earth as the centre of the solar system. Aristotle correctly explained eclipses of the Sun and Moon, and deduced that the Earth was spherical from its shadow on the Moon. He even made a fair estimate of the Earth's radius. Moreover, he recognized that the stars must be very distant and argued that they too were spherical. He also postulated that they were distributed over a range of distances.

"The Kavli gift allows us to invest in new scientific areas and new technologies at the forefront of these fields," said Professor of Physics Jacqueline N. Hewitt. "We can bring new tools to bear on some of the most interesting questions before us: What is the dark energy that appears to pervade the universe? How did the first star form? How does gravity work?" Hewitt is director of MIT's Center for Space Research, which will be renamed the Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research (KIASR). "I am extremely pleased that the Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research at MIT is joining the network of Kavli Institutes," said Kavli Foundation Chairman and philanthropist Fred Kavli. "MIT has an outstanding record of research accomplishments and the KIASR will be a welcome and eminent partner to the other Kavli Institutes." Kavli's lifelong work in instrumentation for the aerospace and automotive industries piqued his interest in the MIT center, which has a unique capacity to design and fabricate highly specialized scientific instrumentation for use in such important initiatives as the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and the LIGO project, which seeks to detect the gravitational waves predicted by Einstein.

Living in Munich Housing MPE Infrared-Astronomy The research of the MPE infrared group centers around infrared and millimeter spectroscopic and very high resolution imaging programs of the Galactic center, AGN and starburst nuclei, galaxy mergers and high redshift galaxies. Key results have been the unambiguous detection of the supermassive black hole in the center of our galaxy through stellar proper motions, and identification of star formation as the main power source of dusty ultraluminous galaxies, by mid-infrared spectroscopy. These results are part of our pursuit of issues like existence and formation of black holes in galactic nuclei, nature and evolution of (ultra)luminous infrared galaxies, gas dynamics and fuelling of AGN, and the properties of starburst galaxies and the star formation sites in them. Recently, we have extended our studies towards the high redshift universe, addressing the properties of distant infrared galaxies and the dynamics of high z galaxies. PhD projects: Dynamics of merging galaxies in the local Universe Dynamics and masses of high redshift galaxies: Testing galaxy formation models The nature of high redshift infrared galaxies forming in the cosmic infrared background The Black Hole in the center of our Galaxy and its surrounding stellar cluster - a laboratory for understanding black holes
