AGN Spectral Energy Distributions of GLAST Telescope Network Program Objects

Work Summary Report
July 2005

Jeff Adkins and his group are preparing to have some students meet before school starts in September to prepare for a proposal for the Teacher Observing Program in the fall related to our Spitzer project. All of the data is collected and awaiting everyone to come back from vacation to continue the analysis. A few of his research students next year have summer assignments related to the background for this project.

Students in Mr. Adkins' class are meeting with him over the summer for background training (they are doing the TLRBSE AGN and Stellar Spectroscopy packets as summer homework) and in August they will work on refining the ground-based light curves and those portions of the SEDS coming from our V,R, and I filtered images. Some preliminary light curves have been completed, but without error bars so they are not ready for distribution.

Steve Rapp is getting ready for workshops in October.

Linda Stefaniak is scheduled for a summer course on the Invisible Universe starting July 19. She presented astronomy workshops and also attended a week long workplace readiness workshop the last week in June into July and got ideas for all her classes.
