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 […]

Exploring extreme states of matter with an ultra-bright X-ray free-electron laser In this talk, we will review recent progress in high-energy density physics using the world’s brightest X-ray source, the […]

The VO And Why It Matters To You In the most technical words, the Virtual Observatory (VO) is an effort to enable uniform and efficient access to astronomical data. With […]

Project 8 - towards a radio frequency measurement of the neutrino mass While neutrino flavour oscillations are a clear indication that neutrinos do have non-vanishing rest masses, their values have […]

The core of the matter – spatially resolving the nuclei of Active Galaxies with VLTI/GRAVITY One of the most exciting opportunities offered by the new VLT beam combiner GRAVITY is […]

Measuring the properties of cosmic rays with the radio technique The radio emission from air showers is now routinely detected to measure the properties of cosmic rays. An overview is […]

Axions from Sun? Exploring the low-energy frontier with the IAXO experiment Axions are ultralight hypothetical particles originally postulated to explain the observed smallness of the neutron´s electric dipole moment and […]
