赤外線天文学と数理 - 不如楽之者

Explore infrared astronomy and mathematics in this 49-minute Japanese lecture from the 18th MACS Colloquium at Kyoto University's Graduate School of Science. Join Professor Tetsuya Osada as he guides through the historical development of astronomy from Galileo to Edison, examines why infrared astronomy initially struggled to flourish, and discusses current infrared astronomy research at Kyoto University. Learn about the 3.8-meter Seimei Telescope and its significance in modern astronomical observations. The presentation, delivered via Zoom in February 2022, covers five main segments: an introduction, mathematical foundations from Galileo to Edison, the delayed development of infrared astronomy, infrared astronomy at Kyoto University's Science Department, and the capabilities of the Seimei Telescope.
