• Francois Brun – The H.E.S.S. Galactic Plane Survey

    ECAP, room 307 Erwin-Rommel-Str 1, Erlangen, Germany

    H.E.S.S. (High Energy Stereoscopic System) is a hybrid array of five Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes observing the very high energy gamma-ray sky. In the past decade, this experiment has significantly […]

  • Laura Spitler – A Brief History of Fast Radio Bursts

    ECAP, room 307 Erwin-Rommel-Str 1, Erlangen, Germany

    Fast radio bursts are millisecond-duration radio beacons from a so-far unidentified class of extragalactic sources first discovered about a decade ago. Their inferred distances, and therefore radio burst energies, challenge […]

  • Anatoli Fedynitch – State-of-the-art atmospheric lepton flux Tools

    ECAP, room 307 Erwin-Rommel-Str 1, Erlangen, Germany

    Atmospheric leptons receive steady interest from several scientific communities. At low and intermediate energies, atmospheric neutrinos are the signal for studies of fundamental neutrino properties and at high energies, they […]
