Primordial Black Holes as Dark Matter Primordial black holes are black holes that may have formed in the early Universe. Their masses potentially span a range from as low as […]
Probing Particle Physics with IceCube The IceCube observatory located at the South Pole is a cubic-kilometre optical Cherenkov telescope primarily designed for the detection of high-energy astrophysical neutrinos. IceCube became […]
Prof. Heber will present the FAU contributions to the APPLAUSE digitization project of astronomical photo negative at the Collegium Alexandrinum. More on the project in our News Item and at the […]
On the difficulties to derive reliable CNO abundances in hot massive stars Though low in number, massive stars play an essential role in the early and present Universe, due to […]
The Magnetic Field of the Milky Way The Milky Way's magnetic field has coherent structures on Galactic scales, following spiral arms but also Galactic outflows. It also has a turbulent […]
Recent Results from X-ray Studies of Supernova Remnants X-ray emission from supernova remnants provides us with probes to high energy phenomena such as acceleration of cosmic-ray particles and nucleosynthesis in […]
Information field theory - turning data into images Charting the Universe from measurements is a challenging information theoretical problem. The finite data provided by instruments is never able to constraint […]
HyperKamiokande: a next generation long baseline neutrino experiment in Japan The seminar will present the HyperKamiokande (HyperK) project which will build a large volume water Cerenkov detector for long baseline […]
Radio detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos High energy neutrino astronomy is a powerful tool to study the high-energy universe. Neutrinos can escape dense source environments and point back to their […]
Cosmic rays between the knee and the ankle Investigations of the energy spectrum as well as the mass composition of cosmic rays in the energy range of PeV to EeV […]
Indirect Dark Matter Searches and Cosmic Ray Transport in the Era of AMS The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) is installed on the International Space Station (ISS) since May 2011. AMS […]
High-energy neutrinos from AGN? With the advent of multi-messenger observatories, neutrino astronomy is turning into a helpful tool to investigate and put limits on the contribution of the known astrophysical […]
