September Slugs and Steins with University Archivist Kelsey Knox
Virtual EventSlime is on Their Side: Celebrating 40 (Official) Years of the UCSC Banana Slug Mascot While rumors and stories abound about the sea lion vs. banana slug controversy of the 1980s, the full history of the banana slug as UCSC’s long-running student chosen mascot has rarely been explored. In honor of the 40th anniversary of […]

Tornoe, S. (ECE) – Improving the UV optical response and suppressing surface plasmon resonance in aluminum and silver base telescope mirrors
2300 Delaware Avenue 2300 Delaware Ave, Santa Cruz, CAHybrid EventAluminum and silver are excellent metal-bases for astronomical telescopes designed for broadband spectral measurements. In particular silver excels in the violet to infrared spectral range range with over 95% reflectance. In turn aluminum excels deep ultra-violet to infrared with over 90% reflectance across the bulk of its spectral range. In astronomical telescope optics, each percent […]
