CEDAR email: 23rd Annual Michael J. Buonsanto Memorial Lecture: 1 November 2023

[Phil Erickson]

Hello all,

MIT Haystack Observatory is pleased to announce the 23rd annual Michael J.
Buonsanto Memorial Lecture.

======
Lecture: “Unlocking the Mysteries of Space with Radio Technology:
Reflections on the Past, Present, and Future.”

Speaker: Prof. Juha Vierinen, University of Tromsø (Norway)

Date: Wednesday, November 1, 2023
Time: 3:00 p.m. ET / 1900 UTC

Abstract:

Michael Buonsanto possessed a remarkable ability to synthesize scientific
insights from measurements produced by a wide range of instruments. His
work was founded on three key pillars: scientific collaborations,
innovative analysis techniques, and the synthesis of observations with
modeling and theory. This lecture will provide a subjective review of the
progress in radio remote sensing instrumentation and measurement analysis
techniques over the past two decades, highlighting the enduring impact of
Michael’s contributions. Additionally, the lecture will endeavor to
forecast the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.

About the Buonsanto lecture series:

Dr. Michael J. Buonsanto (1952–1999) was a key member of the Atmospheric
Sciences Group at MIT Haystack Observatory from January 1988 until his
sudden and untimely death on 21 October 1999. As an MIT Principal Research
Scientist, he made many important scientific contributions to studies of
the Earth’s upper atmosphere, and was an outstanding and cherished
colleague, mentor, and friend. In his honor, MIT Haystack Observatory has
established an annual memorial lecture on space science topics at the
forefront of the atmospheric science research field.
