ABOUT JOHN'S WORK
John Carlstrom is an experimental astrophysicist who solves astronomical problems with instruments of his own design and construction.

Carlstrom co-designed and built the first interferometer operating at submillimeter wavelengths, an innovation which enabled the study of major problems concerning the properties of accretion disks around young solar-type stars. He also co-designed and built the first millimeter wavelength interferometric imaging polarimeter, which allows astrophysicists to investigate the role of magnetism in star formation. His devices have also led to more accurate measurements of the rate of cosmic expansion. Carlstrom's contributions motivate revisions of current cosmological models and advance the field of experimental astronomy.

BIOGRAPHY
Carlstrom is the Subramanyan Chandrasekhar Professor in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of Chicago, where he has taught since 1995. He was a Millikan Research Fellow in astrophysics at the California Institute of Technology (1989-91) where he also taught (1991-1995). He has published numerous articles in such journals as the Astrophysical Journal and Nature.

Carlstrom received an A.B. (1981) from Vassar College and a Ph.D. (1988) from the University of California, Berkeley.

关于约翰的工作
约翰-卡尔斯特伦是一位实验性天体物理学家,他用自己设计和建造的仪器解决天文学问题。

卡尔斯特伦共同设计和建造了第一台在亚毫米波长下工作的干涉仪,这一创新使他能够研究有关年轻太阳型恒星周围吸积盘的特性的重大问题。他还共同设计和建造了第一个毫米波长的干涉成像偏振仪,使天体物理学家能够研究磁力在恒星形成中的作用。他的设备也导致了对宇宙膨胀率的更精确测量。卡尔斯特伦的贡献促使人们对目前的宇宙学模型进行修订,并推动了实验天文学领域的发展。

个人简历
卡尔斯特罗姆是芝加哥大学天文学和天体物理学系的Subramanyan Chandrasekhar教授,他从1995年起就在那里任教。他曾在加州理工学院担任天体物理学的Millikan研究员(1989-91),并在那里任教(1991-1995)。他在《天体物理学杂志》和《自然》等杂志上发表过许多文章。

卡尔斯特罗姆在瓦萨学院获得学士学位(1981年),在加州大学伯克利分校获得博士学位(1988年)。
