Learn about singing black holes at Astronomical Society meeting
Professor to discuss celestial harmony, a newly discovered phenomenon
The Ventura County Astronomical Society will hold its monthly membership meeting at 7:30 p.m. Fri., Oct. 19 in the multipurpose room at Mesa Union School, 3901 Mesa School Road, Somis. Omer Blaes, professor of astrophysics at UC Santa Barbara, will speak about "black holes that sing." Studies have revealed that X-rays emitted by matter around black holes vary at welldefined frequencies unique to each hole, indicating that not only are they singing, but they are singing in harmony. The public is welcome to attend the meeting. For more information, call (805) 520-9666, e-mail vcas1@aolcom, or go online to www.vcas.org. |
