What’s behind those beautiful auroral colors?
XKCD gets it: 'A partial eclipse is like a cool sunset. A total eclipse is like someone broke the sky'. If you're in North America and can get into the track of totality next Monday, do. xkcd.com/2914
It's not every day that you solve a riddle of the universe. But that's exactly what a team of scientists, including Bates physics professor @adiamondstanic, have done, as they have unraveled a mysterious space phenomenon knows as "ORCs." #FacultyFriday bates.edu/news/2024/01/1…
Last night was a sweet treat. The kids had an absolute blast — and we think the trick-or-treaters had fun, too. We could see on our students' faces how good it felt to help bring some joy to our city and home. Thanks to everyone who helped make the campus event such a success.
In one week, on Oct. 27, 2023, Bates will install a new president for only the eighth time in its 168-year history. Here’s what to expect and how to watch⬇️. bates.edu/news/2023/10/1…
Congratulations to Bates Professor of Mathematics @mathyadriana (on right) for being selected by the Mathematical Association of America (@maanow) as one of three recipients of the Deborah and Franklin Tepper Haimo Awards! #FacultyFriday newsroom.maa.org/253785-maa-hon…
🌓Did you know that a first-quarter moon is an ideal phase to observe? It’s high in the sky in the early evening and shadows along the line between night and day enhance the topography. Check out our new Daily Moon Guide for more observing tips! go.nasa.gov/MoonGuide
Meet the 11 Bates professors who have received promotions, including tenure awards, and read what they have to say about being a Bates College professor. #FacultyFriday bates.edu/news/2023/05/2…
Recognizing Professor of Physics @NathanLundblad's groundbreaking experiments in the Cold Atom Laboratory aboard the @Space_Station, @NASA has awarded him a $1.89 million grant and its prestigious Exceptional Scientific Achievement Medal. bates.edu/news/2023/05/1…
I used the color data I already had on this galaxy and stacked about 10 minutes worth of exposures to create this animation. You can see how close the supernova is to some nebulae in the arm… imagine the view from there!
Can you capture the magic of Mount David Summit in just ONE minute? We think so! Enjoy moments from Bates' annual celebration of academic and student research. (Theophil Syslo/Bates College) youtu.be/r9pqYTfxHyQ
The Bates College Board of Trustees has unanimously elected Garry W. Jenkins, dean and professor at the University of Minnesota School of Law, to become the next president of Bates, effective July 1, 2023. (📷: © Caroline Yang)
Excited to analyze these data with @BatesCollege students! This is mid-infrared spectroscopy of the remarkable galaxy "Makani" which has an ionized outflow extending 100 kiloparsecs across (see the figure below from Rupke et al. 2019) ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2019Natur.…
I am now observing J2118+0017 using MIRI Medium Resolution Spectroscopy for 2 hours and 2 minutes. Keywords: Compact galaxies, Starburst galaxies. Proposal: stsci.edu/jwst/phase2-pu… 7:1
