*Internet fast lanes, stock trading, net neutrality.* (Bob Primak)

*Below are our plans for Upcoming Meetings. For more schedule information,
please refer to https://wiki.toku.us/doku.php?id=lctg_speaker_schedule
<https://wiki.toku.us/doku.php?id=lctg_speaker_schedule>  We will continue
to have an online presentation (almost) every Wednesday until it is prudent
for us to resume meeting in person.*

*June 29, 2022*

*Scientific CCD Development at MIT Lincoln Laboratory* (Christopher Leitz)
*The Advanced Imager Technology group at MIT Lincoln Laboratory designs and
fabricates detectors and readout circuits for imaging applications in
support of National Security and scientific exploration. The group has a
long history of supplying silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs) for the
astronomy community, including detectors for the Transiting Exoplanet
Survey Satellite (TESS), the Advanced CC Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on
Chandra, and the 1.3 gigapixel array for Pan-STARRS at the University of
Hawaii. In this talk, we outline both our history in providing these
devices for the scientific community and highlight future directions in CCD
development – notably use of new detector materials to achieve broader
optical response, new fabrication processes to enable lower power
consumption, and development of new readout amplifiers for virtually nearly
noise-free operation – for applications in X-ray astrophysics, optical
astronomy, and particle physics.*

If this email wasn't addressed to you and you would like to join the group,
or if you have a friend or colleague who might also be interested in
joining, it's easy.  Ask them to go to the group's wiki page at
http://LCTG.toku.us and follow the simple instructions under "Join the
Email List".  By being a member of the group you'll get reminders of
upcoming meetings and infrequent related messages. No advertising.  The
list is tightly managed.

Membership is free and given that all meetings are using Zoom you only need
to be connected to the Internet to join. It's ok to join from anywhere you
can get a decent Internet connection.

We, the Lexington Computer and Technology Group, will meet Wednesday at the
usual 10AM Eastern Time, BUT ONLINE, using the Zoom Video Conferencing
Application, facilitated by Steve Isenberg.

There is an instruction page at https://toku.us/zoomish but note that the
URL and phone number shown are examples.



To join our meeting, sometime after 9:45 AM on Wednesday, choose one of the
following options:

   - If you have the Zoom application installed, start it and join meeting
   with ID 972 6146 0830
   - From your browser, go to: https://zoom.us/j/97261460830
   - From your smartphone, tap this: +16468769923,,97261460830
   - From a “dumb” telephone, call 1 646 876 9923 and enter meeting ID: 972
   6146 0830

Once the connection is established, you may need to locate and use the
on-screen controls that turn on the sound and the video. You should be able
to see and hear others and they should be able to see and hear you, if you
have a camera and microphone (each of which you can unmute selectively).
