Dr. Juande Santander-Vela<p>ALMA Discovers “Space Tornadoes” Around the Milky Way’s Core!</p><p>Although the galaxy’s central molecular zone (CMZ) has long been known to be filled with swirling dust and gas molecules cycling through formation and destruction, the mechanism that drives this process has remained elusive. Molecules serve as tracers for various processes in molecular clouds, with silicon monoxide (SiO) particularly useful in detecting the presence of shock waves.</p><p>Using ALMA’s high resolution and sensitivity to map distinct spectral lines within the molecular clouds at the center of the Milky Way, the team led by Kai Yang (Shanghai Jiao Tong University) has delineated a new type of long, narrow filamentary structure at a significantly finer scale. The dynamic interaction between this turbulent environment and the slim filaments produced as shocks ripple through provides a more complete view of the cyclical processes within the CMZ. </p><p>Yang’s team reports it remains unknown how these slim filaments initially arise, but shock processes emerge as a likely explanation.</p><p>More info at <a href="https://www.almaobservatory.org/en/press-releases/alma-discovers-space-tornadoes-around-the-milky-ways-core/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">almaobservatory.org/en/press-r</span><span class="invisible">eleases/alma-discovers-space-tornadoes-around-the-milky-ways-core/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/ALMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ALMA</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/AtacamaLargeMillimeterSubmillimeterArray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtacamaLargeMillimeterSubmillimeterArray</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/AtacamaLargeMillimeterArray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtacamaLargeMillimeterArray</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/MilkyWay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MilkyWay</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/CMZ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CMZ</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/CentralMolecularZone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CentralMolecularZone</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/SgrA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SgrA</span></a>* <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/GalacticCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GalacticCenter</span></a></p>
Dr. Juande Santander-Vela<p>We're hiring again! Now we're looking for an Science Archive Content Manager (aka SACM). This person will be a mamber of the Data Management Group, and will be integral on creating useful science data from the raw data generated by the observatory. And in the WSU era, they will be providing expertise on how to best reduce the data.</p><p>For that, we're looking for someone with a Master's degree in astronomy with minimum three years of relevant working experience. A PhD degree will be considered an asset.</p><p>The successful candidate must have experience in data processing of astronomical data, with a good command of Unix/Linux. If they have experience in sub-mm/radio interferometric and/or single-dish data reduction, and Python programming skills, that will be an asset</p><p>Of course, she or he must be fluent in English, with fluency in Spanish being an asset.</p><p>Does that look like you, or someone you know? Please help us and apply, or forward this vacancy!</p><p><a href="https://www.comeet.com/jobs/almaobservatory/F5.001/science-archive-content--manager--grade-15/6B.354" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">comeet.com/jobs/almaobservator</span><span class="invisible">y/F5.001/science-archive-content--manager--grade-15/6B.354</span></a></p><p><a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/ALMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ALMA</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/AtacamaLargeMillimeterSubmillimeterArray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtacamaLargeMillimeterSubmillimeterArray</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/atacamaLargeMillimeterArray" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>atacamaLargeMillimeterArray</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/SACM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SACM</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/ScienceArchiveContentManager" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceArchiveContentManager</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/Jobs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jobs</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/Vacancies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vacancies</span></a> <a href="https://astrodon.social/tags/Fedihire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedihire</span></a></p>
Dr. Juande Santander-Vela<p>I’m happy to share that we’re looking for what we call a Communities Liaison: the person that will support the ongoing relationship of the observatory with the local communities in the San Pedro/Toconao area, including their leaders and elders.</p><p>Does it sound like something you can do?
