He earned a B.S. in astronomy and physics from Yale in 1981 and a Ph.D. in astronomy from Harvard in 1987. His Ph.D. thesis on X-ray emitting binary stars received the Robert J. Trumpler Award for best North American Ph.D. thesis in astronomy.[1]
During spring 2007, Bailyn recorded ASTR 160, Frontiers and Controversies in Astrophysics, as part of the Open Yale Courses initiative.[2] Bailyn also recorded three updates to the course more than five years later on the subjects of extra-solar planets, black holes, and dark energy.
On July 6, 2016, Yale announced that Bailyn would become the first head of the new Benjamin Franklin College, which opened in 2017.[3]
Recognitionedit
Bailyn was awarded the 2009 Bruno Rossi Prize for his research on the masses of black holes.[4]
