http://www.utahskies.org/HST/Archives/misc.html The Gravitational Lens G2237 + 0305The European Space Agency's Faint Object Camera on board NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has provided astronomers with the most detailed image ever taken of the gravitational lens G2237 + 0305—sometimes referred to as the "Einstein Cross". The photograph shows four images of a very distant quasar which has been multiple-imaged by a relatively nearby galaxy acting as a gravitational lens. The angular separation between the upper and lower images is 1.6 arc seconds.The quasar seen here is at a distance of approximately 8 billion light years, whereas the galaxy at a distance of 400 million light years is 20 times closer. The light from the quasar is bent in its path by the gravitational field of the galaxy. This bending has produced the four bright outer images seen in the photograph. The bright central region of the galaxy is seen as the diffuse central object. Adapted fromAdapted from

Quiz Question Where did de Broglie get his equation for the wavelength of a massive particle? A – From special relativity B – It is the same equation used for light. C – It is the same equation used for sound waves traveling through a medium with mass. D – From the principle of least action E – He found it on the internet. Adapted fromAdapted from

Public Star Party and Opening Social • Get to know the night sky • Look through BIG telescopes • View spiral structure in galaxies! • See nebulas of all types • Watch the moons of Jupiter move • And a whole lot more (no, really, we’re not just saying this - there really is a whole lot more!) When: Friday, Sept. 26 8 - 11pm Where: Big Springs Park What: Telescopes, dark sky, food Directions to Big Springs Park: Head up Provo Canyon. Take a right at Vivian Park. Go through Vivian Park and up the canyon a little over 3 miles. Look for a sign for the star party. Dress warm! Bring your friends. Adapted fromAdapted from

3.4 Phase and Group Velocities A group of waves need not have the same velocity as the waves themselves
Consider this experiment: • Throwing a pebble in a still pool. • http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_velocity • Note green dots mark the beginning and ends of the group of waves but the red dots mark the top of a given wave • If you only had one group of waves, what would it be like? • Why does this work this way? Adapted fromAdapted from
Dispersion • Prism: breaks up white light. How? • Refractive index n and velocity of light? • n= c/v • v(λ) = c/n(λ) • v(k) = c/n(k) Adapted fromAdapted from
What does dispersion have to do with Matter-waves? • Dispersion means that the velocity depends on the wavelength, or k or frequency. • Look at space-time diagrams. (On blackboard) • Definition of phase and group velocities. • Problem 6-1 (draw the dispersion relationship) Adapted fromAdapted from

Just a note... For a photon But... Adapted fromAdapted from
What Exactly is Waving? • For a photon... • electric and magnetic fields • You can measure them if º is small enough. • For visible light, you can see that it is a wave indirectly. • For a massive particle • You can’t measure them --- even in theory! • They are complex! • How do we know that there’s really a wave?
