Larry Nittler, staff scientist at DTM, will give a talk titled "Presolar Stardust in the Solar System" at 11 a.m. on Thursday, 28 March 2016, in the Greenewalt Lecture Hall as part of DTM's Weekly Seminar Series.
Nittler received his Ph.D. in physics from Washington University in 1996. He studies the origin and evolution of stars, the Galaxy, and the Solar System, both through laboratory analysis of extraterrestrial materials like meteorites and interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) and through planetary remote sensing via spacecraft.
Coffee, tea, and a continental breakfast will be served before the lecture at 10:30 a.m.
