The physics department is hosting a talk tomorrow, April 24th at 11 AM which may be of interest to SPIE students. Anyone is welcome to attend. Our colloquia are meant to reach a broad audience. The talk will be in PHYS 401. There will also be time to meet with Willeke at 3 PM tomorrow in PHYS 221.

Title: Detecting bio-signatures of the Earth, as if it was an Exoplanet: Building a snapshot full-stokes spectropolarimeter to search for life on Earth

Speaker: Willeke Mulder, Leiden Observatory

 

Are we alone? The search for life outside Earth is a driving force for (exo)planetary research. Numerical simulations confirm the possibility of being able to distinguish between different surface types as well as molecules in atmospheres, by looking at the reflected flux from their host stars. Linear spectropolarimetry proves to be an even more effective tool to identify structures of different surfaces. In  addition to this, homochirality is the one unambiguous bio-signature of life on Earth that can be identified by measuring the fraction of reflected circular polarized light. To  detect extraterrestrial life, either on solar-system planets and/or moons or on exoplanets, we need highly dedicated instruments as well as data analysis algorithms. Spectropolarimeters help us to understand the sensitivity that is required to identify bio-signatures. In this colloquim, I will introduce you to the search of bio-signatures  on our own Earth, as a testbed to search for life elsewhere. I will go through the measurement  concepts of existing spectropolarimeters, present results from our succesfull field campaign in Switzerland, and end of with a concept space-based instrument designed to measure polarization signals, in the visible spectrum, from the Earth as if it were an exoplanet.

Elective credit for Public Health majors and minors
Our department is offering a brand new summer course on "Interdisciplinary Social Science Research Training" (SOCY 497/698). This course will be in-person 3x/week (T W Th, 9am-12:10pm from May 28-June 20). It is open to all UMBC students, but priority will be given to majors in Sociology, Anthropology, or Public Health as well as students in our Applied Sociology MA program. 

Please note that the course has prerequisites listed by default online, but these are not accurate. All students are welcome in this course. To enroll, simply email: christine_mair@umbc.edu

In this course, students will learn how to:
  • Create and manage social science literature & grant databases
  • Gain proficiency in data literacy:
    • Quantitative (reading codebooks, downloading and accessing data from secondary sources)
    • Qualitative (transcribing, coding, and reviewing data in qualitative software)
Students who complete SOCY 497/698 and are further interested in pursuing opportunities to work with faculty on their research projects for academic credit will have the option to participate in our "SMaRT Scholars Program".

Space is limited! For permission to enroll in SOCY 497/698, email Dr. Mair at: christine_mair@umbc.edu ASAP!
