It’s been a slow week on the research front. Most of my time has been consumed grading tests and labs in addition to homework assignments. Fortunately I’m grading the T/F page of the tests, so that goes rather quickly.
Lately I’ve been working on calibrating data from the Hubble Space Telescope. Once that’s done we should be able to start into the actual analysis of the data. This will involve working out some of the physics of interaction between radio jets and gas inside the galaxy we’re studying.
I’ve also been working on some new projects. One is looking for neutral gas in groups of galaxies, and the other involves black hole masses of distant quasars. Both projects are in the initial stages, but they should be quite interesting.
