  • Chandra and His Students at Yerkes Observatory Donald Ε. Osterbrock
    J. Astrophys. Astr. (1996) 17, 233–268 Chandra and his students at Yerkes Observatory Donald Ε. Osterbrock University of Chicago/Lick Observatory, University of California, Santa Cruz, California 95064. USA Abstract. S. Chandrasekhar’s interactions with graduate students in his more than a quarter century at Yerkes Observatory are described. His graduate teaching, Ph.D. thesis students, colloquia and colloquium series, and seminar series were all important aspects of this side of his scientific research career. His managing editorship of The Astro- physical Journal, his one experience in observational astrophysics, a second paper he wrote describing some of the early observational work at Yerkes Observatory, and a third on “the case for astronomy” are all discussed. A famous myth about one of his courses is corrected, and the circumstances under which the “S. Candlestickmaker” parody was written are recounted. Chandra’s computers, recruited in the Williams Bay community, are mentioned. A complete or nearly complete table of all the thesis students who received their Ph.D. degrees under his supervision, at Yerkes and on the campus in Chicago up through his last one in Astronomy and Astrophysics in 1973, is presented, with references to their published thesis papers. 1 Introduction Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar spent more than a quarter of a century at Yerkes Observatory, a large part of his scientific career. While he was in residence there he wrote four books and more than two hundred papers, moved up the academic hierarchy from research associate to distinguished service professor, and became an American citizen. Other papers in this memorial issue of the Journal of Astro- physics and Astronomy summarize and evaluate Chandra’s research in the many different fields of astrophysics in which he successively worked, each written by a distinguished expert in that field.

  • Executive Director Yerkes Future Foundation Williams Bay, Wisconsin ABOUT YERKES FUTURE FOUNDATION
    POSITION PROFILE Executive Director Yerkes Future Foundation Williams Bay, Wisconsin ABOUT YERKES FUTURE FOUNDATION The mission of the Yerkes Future Foundation (“YFF”) is to preserve and protect Yerkes Observatory, celebrate its history and continue to foster its goals of research, education and astronomical observation by providing the opportunity to engage to all. YFF is positioning itself as a visionary and forward-thinking organization in the world of astronomy and science. In this next chapter, the goal of YFF is to create breakthrough programs and experiences that advance its mission and vision in powerful new ways resulting in new access to astronomy and science education. Yerkes Observatory also seeks to establish itself as a year-round, world-renowned destination by offering unique ways to engage with the historically significant buildings and grounds, history and STEM learning. In this exciting new chapter for the Observatory, YFF seeks to: 1. Be a place of scientific research that re-captures the underlying academic foundations upon which the Observatory was originally conceived. 2. Be a unique and innovative destination of choice to many thousands of people, beginning with the Wisconsin-Illinois region – and extending far beyond, both nationally and internationally. 3. Influence the life outcomes of its visitors, especially young people. 4. Have a national and international profile – based on a deliberate and intelligent blend of academic and research programs, plus being a thoroughly enjoyable place to visit, either as a casual tourist or as a well-informed seeker of knowledge and adventure. 5. Have educational programs that change people’s viewpoints and thinking and are so profound they are personally motivated to do more – and to share their knowledge with the wider world.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

    BACKBACK BAYBAY observerobserver The Official Newsletter of the Back Bay Amateur Astronomers P.O. Box 9877, Virginia Beach, VA 23450-9877 Looking Up! Greetings once again skywatchers! The annual EPHEMERALS Astronomical League Conference (ALCon) is this july 2012 month in Chicago, and I will be attending. We, as a club, are a part of the Astronomical League and are entitled to all the benefits included. For those of you who don’t 07/13 know, the Astronomical League is made up of many of Skywatch the astronomy clubs across the nation. They sponsor Northwest River Park many observing programs, such as the Messier Program, the Binocular Program, the Planetary Nebula 07/14, 11:00 am Program (which BBAA helped begin) and awards such BBAA Family Picnic as the National Young Astronomer Award, the Horkheimer/Smith Award, and many, many more. Northwest River Park They also publish a quarterly newsletter called The Large Picnic Shelter Reflector that every member receives. 07/20, 7:00 pm Back to ALCon, it’s like any other conference except there’s a bunch of astronomer nerds hanging out and Night Hike talking about astronomer stuff. There are speakers, Northwest River Park events and day trips. For example, this year there are trips to Yerkes Observatory, Fermilab, and the Adler 07/21 Planetarium. There will also be nightly star parties, a Nightwatch “Star-B-Que” and an awards banquet. It’s going to be Chippokes State Park bunches of fun and I’m sure I will have many stories to Surry, VA tell when I come back.
