SUMMARY:Physics Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Astrophysics is well-known for idiosyncratic units that have never in practice been superseded by the SI.  Why is that?  Do astronomers use parsecs\, optical magnitudes\, and so on just to annoy students\, or is there actually a problem with using SI units consistently in astrophysics?  This talk will argue that there actually was aproblem with the SI\, but the reforms of 2019 solved it\, and the new SI works very well with astrophysics. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:  Dr. Prasenjit Saha is a Professor in the University of Zurich since 2005. He did his bachelors from Delhi University and Master's from IIT Kanpur. He obtained his DPhil from Oxford University. His research lies in several topics within theoretical astrophysics. Prof. Saha started very theoretical\, working on regular vs chaotic orbits and now has almost completed the transition to experiment: working on new instruments that apply quantum optics to astronomical imaging.
