Working as a freelance writer for the the United Church Observer 20 years ago, Jocelyn realized she had a passion for journalism and for sharing stories that inspire, inform and challenge her readers. Over the last two decades she has seen journalism evolve into the digital realm, the rise of social media, and also the transformation of the Observer to what is now Broadview. The magazine and website's tagline is "Spirituality, Justice and Ethical Living", and as their website's About page says, "With Broadview, Editor and Publisher Jocelyn Bell aims to create an inclusive magazine and digital platforms for thoughtful readers interested in exploring and living out progressive Christianity's core values. “We understand that this means being both introspective and outward-looking,” she says. “We are required to examine our beliefs and values, and to live and act accordingly. We are called to engage deeply with the justice issues of our day — and to believe that hope lies in caring profoundly for one another and for our planet.”In this episode of the podcast, one of Broadview's online stories that Jocelyn talks about is an article written by Emily Standfield that you will definitely want to read for yourself after hearing why Jocelyn loves it so much (and so do we!), so here is the direct link to that story:https://broadview.org/medically-assisted-death-church/To subscribe to Broadview, make a donation, or follow their social media, visit broadview.org or their Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/BroadviewMag

Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson had a problem. In the 1960s, the researchers at Bell Laboratories were studying radio waves reflected from a giant balloon in orbit. But the signal was noisy. They eliminated every source of interference they could think of — including pigeon droppings inside their radio telescope. But the noise remained. When they talked to other scientists, though, they realized the “noise” was actually an important discovery: the “afterglow” of the Big Bang. Astronomy contains many such instances of serendipity — chance discoveries made while working on a different topic. In 1967, for example, graduate student Jocelyn Bell was using a radio telescope to study quasars — some of the brightest objects in the universe. She discovered several sources, though, that produced regular “pulses” of radio waves. She and her advisor ruled out many possible explanations for these “pulsars.” Another researcher eventually came up with the answer: They’re the spinning corpses of massive stars that “beam” energy into space. As Bell was making her discovery, satellites were making another. They were looking for nuclear bomb tests, which were banned by a treaty. Instead, they found bursts of gamma rays from deep space. The discovery was declassified in 1973. But it took decades to work out the sources of the gamma-ray bursts: the explosions of massive stars, or the mergers of the corpses of such stars — serendipitous discoveries in the stars.

The intensity of celestial sources passing over the fixed field of radio receivers was recorded on strip charts and had to be analyzed by visual inspection. This task fell naturally to the graduate student of the group, Jocelyn Bell. On August 6, 1967, she first noticed a peculiar train of radio signals when the sky at right ascension 19h19min passed through the field of view. What could have caused such a transient periodic signal? The first suspicion was of course interference from some electric equipment, like the ignition of a passing car or a satellite. But to the surprise of Bell the signal appeared again at about the same time of day. After a few months it was obvious that the regular pulses were coming from a celestial source beyond our solar system. Furthermore a recording of the source with sub-second time resolution on November 28, 1967, revealed pulses repeating at a regular period of 1.33 s. At that point - the discovery of the phenomenon was still kept secret - the thought that radio signals from an extraterrestrial civilization had been recorded was seriously considered, under the code "LGM" (little green men).

The radio sky was thought to only change on long timescales but this new telescope's ability to explore a different regime of phase space meant that it made one of the greatest discoveries in astronomy, that of pulsars. Pulsars are neutron stars, the collapsed cores of once-massive stars. They have been used to perform some of the most accurate experiments in physics, and were the motivation for the construction of the LIGO telescope that recently discovered gravitational waves. In this talk Professor Matthew Bailes will explain how whilst trying to find new pulsars astronomers stumbled across a brand new phenomenon, the Fast Radio Bursts.

Professor Bailyn begins with a summary of the four post-Newtonian effects of general relativity that were introduced and explained last time: precession of the perihelion, the deflection of light, the gravitational redshift, and gravitational waves. The concept of gravitational lensing is discussed as predicted by Einstein's general relativity theory. The formation of a gravitational lens can be observed when light from a bright distant source bends around a massive object between the source (such as a quasar) and the observer. Professor Bailyn then offers a slideshow of gravitational lenses. The issue of finding suitable astronomical objects that lend the opportunity to observe post-Newtonian relativistic effects is addressed. The lecture ends with Jocelyn Bell and the discovery of pulsars.

Transcript: In 1967 Jocelyn Bell, a graduate student working at a radio telescope in Cambridge, England, noticed an unexpected source of radio emission that pulsed every one and a third seconds. Through careful detective work she and her coworkers were able to rule out artificial sources for the radio waves and proved that they came from a celestial source. Radio pulsing stars were unexpected and unanticipated. If the pulse was due to rotation, the size of the star must be less than five thousand kilometers, making them much smaller than normal stars. For a while she and her group jokingly referred to the objects as LGM 1, 2, 3, and so on, where LGM stood for Little Green Men. They were not alien signals, nor were they artificial. Pulsars were the long sought after neutron stars. Antony Hewish and Martin Ryle, heads of the labs at Cambridge, received the Nobel Prize for this discovery. Controversially, Jocelyn Bell who actually made the discovery did not share in the Nobel Prize.
