Sarah received her BS in Geology from the California Institute of Technology. Her research now focuses on the interfaces between water, minerals, and biomolecules relating to the origin of life. In the Sasselov lab, she is studying the photophysics of RNA...
Zoe's work focuses on understanding the planetary conditions necessary for the origins of life on Earth, and how this may apply to other planets. Zoe is involved in both experimental prebiotic chemistry projects, especially pertaining to the role of UV...
Jonah received his BA in Physics from the University of Pennsylvania. His research is focused on theoretical atomic, molecular, and biophysics as it pertains to the origin of life and astrobiology. Current research interests include symmetry breaking in...
Dimitar Sasselov is the Phillips Professor of Astronomy at Harvard University. He explores stars and planets, and how life emerged on Earth, by specializing in the modes of interaction between light and matter, and the uses of remote sensing. Sasselov and...
We demonstrate a broad, flat, visible supercontinuum spectrum that is generated by a dispersion-engineered tapered photonic crystal fiber pumped by a 1 GHz repetition rate turn-key Ti:sapphire laser outputting ~30 fs pulses at 800 nm. At a pulse energy...
