Dr. Kailash Sahu of the Space Telescope Science Institute

Dr. Khadish Sahu of the Space Telescope Science Institute will present “Rogue Black Holes and their Existence in Space” to the AOSNY members. Join AOSNY for another quality presentation.

Dr. Sahu is an Astronomer, and an Instrument Scientist for the WFC3 instrument on board the Hubble Space Telescope. His research efforts have focused on applying microlensing, transit, and relativistic deflection techniques to detect and study exoplanets, nearby stars and black holes. He currently leads two HST projects to detect isolated, stellar-mass black holes and determine their masses through gravitational lensing.
