1 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:09,440 we talk about some novel work we're 2 00:00:16,310 --> 00:00:12,450 doing trying to do understand my 3 00:00:18,650 --> 00:00:16,320 observations of Isis in a new way so I 4 00:00:20,330 --> 00:00:18,660 brought this up before but why Isis well 5 00:00:23,060 --> 00:00:20,340 of the hundred and eighty molecules 6 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:23,070 detected in space anything you want to 7 00:00:27,470 --> 00:00:25,410 make larger than methanol probably has 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:27,480 to be made on a grain surface so these 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:29,250 are the places you want to look if you 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:31,170 want to understand complex molecule 11 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:34,410 formation one of the problems we run 12 00:00:38,569 --> 00:00:36,090 into now is that these are the only 13 00:00:39,860 --> 00:00:38,579 molecules we have actually detected in a 14 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:39,870 night's these are the only molecules 15 00:00:44,450 --> 00:00:42,090 we've detected where we think they're 16 00:00:47,029 --> 00:00:44,460 frozen out in forming everything bigger 17 00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:47,039 and most of the other species are just 18 00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:49,410 not observed so far and this is a big 19 00:00:53,180 --> 00:00:51,510 this is a big impediment to actually 20 00:00:55,779 --> 00:00:53,190 understanding ice chemistry because 21 00:00:58,970 --> 00:00:55,789 interstellar observations are how we 22 00:01:00,560 --> 00:00:58,980 reconcile our theory with what's 23 00:01:02,990 --> 00:01:00,570 actually going on and if we can't detect 24 00:01:06,620 --> 00:01:03,000 bigger more complicated things this is a 25 00:01:09,260 --> 00:01:06,630 problem so I we're a terahertz 26 00:01:10,340 --> 00:01:09,270 spectroscopy group so we obviously want 27 00:01:12,710 --> 00:01:10,350 to try to solve this problem with 28 00:01:15,140 --> 00:01:12,720 terahertz spectroscopy so terahertz is 29 00:01:17,450 --> 00:01:15,150 sometimes called the far infrared it's 30 00:01:19,550 --> 00:01:17,460 very long wavelengths infrared radiation 31 00:01:22,270 --> 00:01:19,560 or verging on very high frequency 32 00:01:24,499 --> 00:01:22,280 microwave it spans the two and so the 33 00:01:26,990 --> 00:01:24,509 transitions usually see here are either 34 00:01:28,870 --> 00:01:27,000 very low frequency large amplitude 35 00:01:31,700 --> 00:01:28,880 vibrations from single molecules or 36 00:01:33,380 --> 00:01:31,710 collective vibrations of solids and it's 37 00:01:36,140 --> 00:01:33,390 the collective vibrations of solids we 38 00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:36,150 want to go after and what we want to do 39 00:01:40,190 --> 00:01:37,920 is exploit the fact that it's very long 40 00:01:42,499 --> 00:01:40,200 wavelengths so this is two optical 41 00:01:44,690 --> 00:01:42,509 images of discs and you'll notice 42 00:01:47,330 --> 00:01:44,700 they're very fuzzy and opaque so there's 43 00:01:49,910 --> 00:01:47,340 mass here it's obstructing all of the 44 00:01:52,130 --> 00:01:49,920 optical photons dust is extremely opaque 45 00:01:53,660 --> 00:01:52,140 at optical frequencies as you go lower 46 00:01:55,130 --> 00:01:53,670 and lower in frequency the disc gets 47 00:01:56,749 --> 00:01:55,140 more and more transparent and you can 48 00:01:58,429 --> 00:01:56,759 start seeing through it but all the 49 00:02:00,469 --> 00:01:58,439 really interesting stuff in the disc the 50 00:02:01,940 --> 00:02:00,479 ice especially is all completely 51 00:02:03,740 --> 00:02:01,950 obscured because the outer edge of the 52 00:02:08,089 --> 00:02:03,750 disc is just blocking all of the light 53 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:08,099 and so this I put this light up before 54 00:02:12,020 --> 00:02:10,770 but really quickly I this is really 55 00:02:14,030 --> 00:02:12,030 important because if we want to actually 56 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:14,040 see into the really into 57 00:02:17,869 --> 00:02:16,290 in parts of protoplanetary discs the 58 00:02:19,699 --> 00:02:17,879 interesting stuff is happening in the 59 00:02:23,390 --> 00:02:19,709 mid plane that's where ice is freezing 60 00:02:26,059 --> 00:02:23,400 out ice freeze out drives aggregation of 61 00:02:28,009 --> 00:02:26,069 small dust grains into bigger ones in 62 00:02:29,809 --> 00:02:28,019 fact ice is probably how you get over 63 00:02:31,759 --> 00:02:29,819 the centimeter problem building up 64 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:31,769 bigger and bigger particles generally 65 00:02:37,339 --> 00:02:34,970 requires icy bodies and it also whoops 66 00:02:41,569 --> 00:02:37,349 see if it's going to change it also 67 00:02:43,369 --> 00:02:41,579 requires a mass transport so this is 68 00:02:44,839 --> 00:02:43,379 going to be what drives the composition 69 00:02:47,509 --> 00:02:44,849 of your planet's and where all your 70 00:02:50,210 --> 00:02:47,519 organics end up and all your water and 71 00:02:51,890 --> 00:02:50,220 the problem is if you want to look at 72 00:02:54,110 --> 00:02:51,900 the mid plane of the disk you're only 73 00:02:55,490 --> 00:02:54,120 going to see very little in so if you 74 00:02:57,259 --> 00:02:55,500 want to see in towards the center where 75 00:02:59,030 --> 00:02:57,269 the ice is actually freezing out you 76 00:03:01,699 --> 00:02:59,040 need a way to look at it so 77 00:03:04,369 --> 00:03:01,709 traditionally the way I observations are 78 00:03:06,140 --> 00:03:04,379 done is through trans absorption 79 00:03:08,330 --> 00:03:06,150 spectroscopy so you have starred in the 80 00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:08,340 background you have ice along the line 81 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:10,650 of sight and then you detect absorption 82 00:03:15,559 --> 00:03:14,250 of this but the problem is as you build 83 00:03:17,449 --> 00:03:15,569 up more and more dust in the line of 84 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:17,459 sight well it gets a fake very quickly 85 00:03:21,589 --> 00:03:19,530 at terahertz frequencies though the dust 86 00:03:23,300 --> 00:03:21,599 is completely transparent and light goes 87 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:23,310 right through unless it's absorbed by 88 00:03:27,979 --> 00:03:24,810 the ice or at least it's far more 89 00:03:29,689 --> 00:03:27,989 transparent I and the other thing that's 90 00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:29,699 very helpful is that you need a 91 00:03:33,229 --> 00:03:31,470 background star in the infrared so to do 92 00:03:35,330 --> 00:03:33,239 an emission experiment to get ice to 93 00:03:37,039 --> 00:03:35,340 emit you'd have to heat it up to several 94 00:03:38,449 --> 00:03:37,049 hundred Kelvin if you heed nice to 95 00:03:41,449 --> 00:03:38,459 several hundred Kelvin the ice is 96 00:03:43,490 --> 00:03:41,459 evaporated already so the only way to do 97 00:03:45,770 --> 00:03:43,500 it is absorption so you have to find a 98 00:03:47,300 --> 00:03:45,780 place with ice and then a star in the 99 00:03:49,369 --> 00:03:47,310 background that hasn't desorbed your ice 100 00:03:51,229 --> 00:03:49,379 so there's a very limited number of 101 00:03:55,369 --> 00:03:51,239 places we can actually observe ice in 102 00:03:57,110 --> 00:03:55,379 space I so that's the problem we want to 103 00:03:59,750 --> 00:03:57,120 do this with terahertz but the problem 104 00:04:01,399 --> 00:03:59,760 is terahertz spectra of Isis and far 105 00:04:03,020 --> 00:04:01,409 infrared don't really exist or they're 106 00:04:04,550 --> 00:04:03,030 fairly limited turns out making 107 00:04:07,909 --> 00:04:04,560 terahertz photons is actually very 108 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:07,919 difficult so we go through a lot of 109 00:04:12,020 --> 00:04:09,930 trouble to make them it's a big 110 00:04:14,929 --> 00:04:12,030 complicated slide but basically what we 111 00:04:17,509 --> 00:04:14,939 do is we take an ultra-fast laser so few 112 00:04:19,099 --> 00:04:17,519 tens of femtosecond long pulse we focus 113 00:04:21,589 --> 00:04:19,109 it down to a point and we generate a 114 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:21,599 plasma so this is our little plasma it 115 00:04:25,610 --> 00:04:23,610 throws off a huge amount of optical 116 00:04:27,860 --> 00:04:25,620 night that's very pretty but sadly we 117 00:04:30,409 --> 00:04:27,870 just lock it so 118 00:04:33,020 --> 00:04:30,419 it also gives off very intense very 119 00:04:34,879 --> 00:04:33,030 broad band terahertz pulses so these 120 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:34,889 things span many hundreds of wave 121 00:04:39,379 --> 00:04:37,410 numbers all at once and so what we're 122 00:04:40,730 --> 00:04:39,389 going to do is collect them and focus 123 00:04:43,700 --> 00:04:40,740 them through a substrate they've already 124 00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:43,710 been a couple descriptions of how we do 125 00:04:49,580 --> 00:04:46,710 how you make these but our ice chamber 126 00:04:52,340 --> 00:04:49,590 is a small little hv system it's a 127 00:04:54,439 --> 00:04:52,350 silicon substrate and cryostat so we can 128 00:04:56,750 --> 00:04:54,449 change the temperature from anything to 129 00:04:59,540 --> 00:04:56,760 about 10 Kelvin up to 300 if we want and 130 00:05:02,600 --> 00:04:59,550 then we just dose in whatever ice we 131 00:05:05,629 --> 00:05:02,610 want to form mixtures layers or just 132 00:05:07,100 --> 00:05:05,639 pure samples and we deposited on the 133 00:05:09,710 --> 00:05:07,110 substrate and then just do a fairly 134 00:05:11,900 --> 00:05:09,720 simple beers law absorption experiment 135 00:05:15,590 --> 00:05:11,910 we just look at the absorption through 136 00:05:17,570 --> 00:05:15,600 and this is sort of the band width of 137 00:05:21,050 --> 00:05:17,580 our instruments so we can see everything 138 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:21,060 from about a few wave numbers up to 250 139 00:05:25,580 --> 00:05:23,490 and so now if we can do spectroscopy 140 00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:25,590 here we need an observatory that can 141 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:28,080 match that and so I've mentioned almond 142 00:05:31,550 --> 00:05:29,970 a little bit with the image of HL tau it 143 00:05:33,529 --> 00:05:31,560 actually is pretty limited it only 144 00:05:35,990 --> 00:05:33,539 covers the first terahertz a bandwidth 145 00:05:38,540 --> 00:05:36,000 we do there's Herschel spire and packs 146 00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:38,550 which have ok coverage but these are 147 00:05:42,589 --> 00:05:40,110 actually now defunct they're sitting at 148 00:05:44,210 --> 00:05:42,599 l2 but they're out of liquid helium so 149 00:05:45,650 --> 00:05:44,220 they're not running anymore there's only 150 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:45,660 one Observatory in the world that can 151 00:05:51,350 --> 00:05:47,130 cover the bandwidth we want and that's 152 00:05:53,210 --> 00:05:51,360 Sofia's Fifi instrument so to do sort of 153 00:05:55,250 --> 00:05:53,220 just testing we've never done anything 154 00:05:57,020 --> 00:05:55,260 like this the pretty obvious case is to 155 00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:57,030 go look at water water is the biggest 156 00:06:00,320 --> 00:05:59,039 component of any interstellar ice so 157 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:00,330 you'd like to start with water so this 158 00:06:05,629 --> 00:06:02,970 is a spectra that Brett recorded of 159 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:05,639 crystal and water ice at 10 Kelvin it's 160 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:07,289 nice and pretty we get a very strong 161 00:06:14,540 --> 00:06:11,370 peak here and if you look at the Fifi 162 00:06:16,790 --> 00:06:14,550 coverage we have perfect over map except 163 00:06:18,469 --> 00:06:16,800 that right now Fifi is missing a filter 164 00:06:22,909 --> 00:06:18,479 so we can't actually cover this range 165 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:22,919 and it's really sad I so just for a 166 00:06:26,990 --> 00:06:24,330 minute I want to stop and tell you what 167 00:06:29,060 --> 00:06:27,000 Fifi is it is an instrument hooked to 168 00:06:31,550 --> 00:06:29,070 the back of this telescope it's on a 747 169 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:31,560 we fly it up to 40,000 feet and then 170 00:06:37,850 --> 00:06:35,370 open the door in flight and then use one 171 00:06:40,180 --> 00:06:37,860 meter telescope in the back to track an 172 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:40,190 object through turbulent so it's got a 173 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:41,610 massive cyst 174 00:06:45,409 --> 00:06:43,289 that keeps the telescope pointed even 175 00:06:47,779 --> 00:06:45,419 when the planes jumping up and down so 176 00:06:50,809 --> 00:06:47,789 we're able to track an object as we fly 177 00:06:53,629 --> 00:06:50,819 through the sky and get really nice data 178 00:06:56,119 --> 00:06:53,639 so it's a really fantastic thing but it 179 00:06:58,429 --> 00:06:56,129 doesn't quite work for water yet what it 180 00:07:00,379 --> 00:06:58,439 does work for is co to co 2 is one of 181 00:07:02,179 --> 00:07:00,389 the next most abundant constituents in a 182 00:07:04,610 --> 00:07:02,189 nice so it's another obvious place to go 183 00:07:06,709 --> 00:07:04,620 so this is actually a spectra from 184 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:06,719 bretts thesis we can make crystal and 185 00:07:11,179 --> 00:07:09,210 co2 ice at different temperatures and we 186 00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:11,189 have two very nice modes that pop up 187 00:07:15,559 --> 00:07:13,409 right in the middle of the Sofia band so 188 00:07:16,879 --> 00:07:15,569 we can cover both we also have this 189 00:07:19,670 --> 00:07:16,889 really interesting thing which is the 190 00:07:22,490 --> 00:07:19,680 band position shift with frequency North 191 00:07:24,379 --> 00:07:22,500 temperature so anytime you observe one 192 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:24,389 of these Isis you immediately know its 193 00:07:28,159 --> 00:07:26,250 temperature very precisely and you get 194 00:07:29,929 --> 00:07:28,169 the information for free which is very 195 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:29,939 helpful for understanding the physics of 196 00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:32,610 whatever you're looking at I so we'd 197 00:07:35,779 --> 00:07:34,319 like to know what these are it actually 198 00:07:38,269 --> 00:07:35,789 turns out to be very important to know 199 00:07:40,339 --> 00:07:38,279 what these two modes are these are 200 00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:40,349 crystalline modes so this is the mo 201 00:07:45,260 --> 00:07:43,080 frequency one the it's crystal and co2 202 00:07:47,269 --> 00:07:45,270 ice buying layers moving back and forth 203 00:07:49,579 --> 00:07:47,279 between each other this is just an 204 00:07:53,570 --> 00:07:49,589 optical phone on and then the higher 205 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:53,580 frequency one is there we go I co2 206 00:07:58,490 --> 00:07:55,650 molecules bands moving back and forth 207 00:07:59,959 --> 00:07:58,500 and so it's really cool but one of the 208 00:08:02,480 --> 00:07:59,969 issues here is that this requires 209 00:08:04,939 --> 00:08:02,490 crystal and co2 to work you have to have 210 00:08:07,070 --> 00:08:04,949 an ordered crystal and ice to get these 211 00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:07,080 modes to show up so we can actually 212 00:08:11,929 --> 00:08:09,300 prove that if we go through and make an 213 00:08:13,790 --> 00:08:11,939 amorphous ice if we deposit in ice at 10 214 00:08:15,409 --> 00:08:13,800 Kelvin where the molecules don't have 215 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:15,419 enough energy to rearrange you get this 216 00:08:18,860 --> 00:08:17,250 sort of amorphous mixture that can't 217 00:08:21,409 --> 00:08:18,870 crystallize and if you try to take a 218 00:08:24,050 --> 00:08:21,419 spectra you get a flat line so this is 219 00:08:25,909 --> 00:08:24,060 good and bad for observations it means 220 00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:25,919 that we're now sensitive to composition 221 00:08:30,350 --> 00:08:28,110 two so once you heat a nice up if you 222 00:08:32,329 --> 00:08:30,360 cool it back down it'll stay crystal and 223 00:08:34,459 --> 00:08:32,339 it will not lose that crystalline 224 00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:34,469 structure but if it's if it was never 225 00:08:38,899 --> 00:08:37,169 heated up it will never make a 226 00:08:40,550 --> 00:08:38,909 crystalline structure so this is good 227 00:08:42,380 --> 00:08:40,560 and bad because now we can track the 228 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:42,390 thermal history of the ice if you see a 229 00:08:45,889 --> 00:08:44,370 10 Kelvin ice but its crystalline you 230 00:08:47,509 --> 00:08:45,899 know at some point that ice was exposed 231 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:47,519 to much warmer temperatures and then 232 00:08:51,410 --> 00:08:48,810 cooled off and that can be very useful 233 00:08:54,139 --> 00:08:51,420 for understanding dynamics the problem 234 00:08:55,100 --> 00:08:54,149 is if a nice never saw a temperature 235 00:08:58,579 --> 00:08:55,110 warm enough to crystal 236 00:09:01,370 --> 00:08:58,589 is it then the line of sight that has no 237 00:09:03,170 --> 00:09:01,380 co2 or amorphous co2 looks identical and 238 00:09:05,180 --> 00:09:03,180 you can't tell if you have no co2 there 239 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:05,190 or if it's just not warm enough to 240 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:10,890 crystallize so this is the Fifi band so 241 00:09:15,259 --> 00:09:12,810 this actually works out beautifully now 242 00:09:17,030 --> 00:09:15,269 the trick is that we want to go out and 243 00:09:19,550 --> 00:09:17,040 do something with this telescope that 244 00:09:21,769 --> 00:09:19,560 was never intended so Fifi was meant for 245 00:09:24,680 --> 00:09:21,779 small narrow spectral lines these lines 246 00:09:27,620 --> 00:09:24,690 are our lines are a few wave numbers 247 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:27,630 wide the mines were suppose that this 248 00:09:31,579 --> 00:09:29,370 instrument was intended to see were 249 00:09:33,949 --> 00:09:31,589 tense the hundreds of wave numbers wide 250 00:09:36,170 --> 00:09:33,959 it was never meant to see something this 251 00:09:39,650 --> 00:09:36,180 broad as a observing mode that was never 252 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:39,660 tested and so this is going to be tricky 253 00:09:44,509 --> 00:09:41,970 because like I said we're in a 747 at 254 00:09:45,949 --> 00:09:44,519 40,000 feet bouncing around now we fly 255 00:09:48,050 --> 00:09:45,959 that high to get above most of the 256 00:09:49,490 --> 00:09:48,060 Earth's water but there's still a little 257 00:09:51,740 --> 00:09:49,500 bit of atmospheric water so now you have 258 00:09:53,569 --> 00:09:51,750 a changing atmosphere in a bouncing 259 00:09:56,389 --> 00:09:53,579 telescope and what you have to do is do 260 00:09:58,790 --> 00:09:56,399 67 individual integrations across this 261 00:10:00,740 --> 00:09:58,800 band to get enough data to actually see 262 00:10:03,019 --> 00:10:00,750 this broad feature and this is something 263 00:10:04,970 --> 00:10:03,029 nobody thought we nobody ever thought 264 00:10:07,490 --> 00:10:04,980 someone would try and so this was 265 00:10:09,290 --> 00:10:07,500 totally speculative to see if you we 266 00:10:11,269 --> 00:10:09,300 could even get something that would be 267 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:11,279 stable over the course of an observation 268 00:10:14,300 --> 00:10:13,410 and so we propose this to the Fifi 269 00:10:16,579 --> 00:10:14,310 instrument team and they were 270 00:10:19,310 --> 00:10:16,589 surprisingly excited about it and really 271 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:19,320 wanted us to give it a go so we picked 272 00:10:25,189 --> 00:10:22,410 the target in GC 7538 it's actually got 273 00:10:27,620 --> 00:10:25,199 two different sources irs-1 it's more 274 00:10:29,269 --> 00:10:27,630 processed and has very little co2 that's 275 00:10:31,220 --> 00:10:29,279 going to be our reference source we know 276 00:10:33,560 --> 00:10:31,230 from infrared observations there is no 277 00:10:36,350 --> 00:10:33,570 real co2 ice there and then we have IRS 278 00:10:38,540 --> 00:10:36,360 9 it's dimmer but it has very abundant 279 00:10:40,639 --> 00:10:38,550 co2 I some of the most abundant co2 ice 280 00:10:43,130 --> 00:10:40,649 observed in space so what we're going to 281 00:10:45,860 --> 00:10:43,140 do is observe both of them back and 282 00:10:47,540 --> 00:10:45,870 forth simultaneously as we fly and see 283 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:47,550 if we can actually get stable base lines 284 00:10:52,340 --> 00:10:50,130 and so this is very new we got this 285 00:10:54,769 --> 00:10:52,350 about a month ago from the Fifi team so 286 00:10:57,439 --> 00:10:54,779 this just came down I so what we do 287 00:10:59,150 --> 00:10:57,449 black in red or individual scans so we 288 00:11:01,040 --> 00:10:59,160 started in the center and then worked 289 00:11:03,500 --> 00:11:01,050 out to the outside and then filled back 290 00:11:06,319 --> 00:11:03,510 in on the edges and so each one of these 291 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:06,329 is an individual scan and it's actually 292 00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:08,010 worked surprisingly well for us so all 293 00:11:11,860 --> 00:11:08,910 these big dips 294 00:11:14,660 --> 00:11:11,870 our atmospheric water absorption but 295 00:11:17,570 --> 00:11:14,670 everything's tracking so stuff we did 50 296 00:11:19,580 --> 00:11:17,580 minutes after this follows the pattern 297 00:11:22,010 --> 00:11:19,590 exactly everything lines up nicely and 298 00:11:24,020 --> 00:11:22,020 it's shockingly stable as we're bouncing 299 00:11:26,660 --> 00:11:24,030 around in the atmosphere so this is a 300 00:11:27,860 --> 00:11:26,670 really promising start it's you know it 301 00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:27,870 proves that we can actually get the 302 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:29,700 telescope up there working and observe 303 00:11:33,230 --> 00:11:31,770 something this broad without having the 304 00:11:36,050 --> 00:11:33,240 atmosphere completely ruined the 305 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:36,060 observations we can do a background 306 00:11:39,860 --> 00:11:38,010 subtraction and it's pretty clear that 307 00:11:41,900 --> 00:11:39,870 we don't correctly subtract out the 308 00:11:43,730 --> 00:11:41,910 water lines so this is going to be the 309 00:11:45,230 --> 00:11:43,740 ongoing thing is this is something 310 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:45,240 that's known in optical and infrared 311 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:47,490 observations is that atmospheric water 312 00:11:51,410 --> 00:11:49,530 subtraction is really tricky the models 313 00:11:53,570 --> 00:11:51,420 that they have an infrared are very good 314 00:11:55,490 --> 00:11:53,580 so the next step is going to be starting 315 00:11:57,830 --> 00:11:55,500 to apply these methods too far infrared 316 00:11:59,270 --> 00:11:57,840 observations to really subtract the 317 00:12:00,890 --> 00:11:59,280 water out and get at the very weak 318 00:12:04,010 --> 00:12:00,900 absorption features that we hope were 319 00:12:05,690 --> 00:12:04,020 here all right with that I'd like to 320 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:05,700 thank the rest of the Blake group our 321 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:07,410 funding sources and you guys for your 322 00:12:26,570 --> 00:12:23,610 attention so questions really exciting 323 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:26,580 work so I was just wondering if her show 324 00:12:32,270 --> 00:12:29,490 packs covers the same spectra Herschel 325 00:12:34,310 --> 00:12:32,280 packs covers some of the same spectra so 326 00:12:36,020 --> 00:12:34,320 there's archival data and Thomas 327 00:12:38,150 --> 00:12:36,030 Hennings put up a slide where he shows 328 00:12:41,030 --> 00:12:38,160 that water ice absorption the 329 00:12:42,590 --> 00:12:41,040 calibration is really tough so we're 330 00:12:44,570 --> 00:12:42,600 going to be working with them a lot to 331 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:44,580 figure out because packs and fefe are 332 00:12:48,770 --> 00:12:46,770 identical instruments fifi exists 333 00:12:51,290 --> 00:12:48,780 because they built a backup of packs and 334 00:12:55,850 --> 00:12:51,300 they just had it laying around and so 335 00:12:58,130 --> 00:12:55,860 now they put it on telescope people yep 336 00:13:01,340 --> 00:12:58,140 it's on okay i know people working on 337 00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:01,350 her show digit pack stay there trying to 338 00:13:06,650 --> 00:13:03,660 calibrate it i don't think they trust 339 00:13:08,180 --> 00:13:06,660 ice calibration yet by skating there 340 00:13:10,730 --> 00:13:08,190 soon yeah so Thomas Hennings got a 341 00:13:12,590 --> 00:13:10,740 little bit but yeah this is a tricky 342 00:13:14,690 --> 00:13:12,600 process this is not what this instrument 343 00:13:23,329 --> 00:13:14,700 was designed for so calibration is going 344 00:13:33,809 --> 00:13:30,600 alright well oh yeah yeah unfortunately 345 00:13:36,749 --> 00:13:33,819 not it's either going to be pitch black 346 00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:36,759 in here or like this we can take a vote 347 00:13:42,179 --> 00:13:38,110 but I figured people don't want to fall
