Civilian and military use of nuclear technology To exploit nuclear technology for civilian purposes, in particular energy production, a variety of facilities - a nuclear fuel cycle - is necessary, […]

Exploring the signatures of cosmic ray feedback effects in galaxy ecosystems Cosmic rays go hand-in-hand with violent and energetic astrophysical conditions. They are an active agent within galactic and circumgalactic […]

Recent Highlights from the VERITAS AGN Program VERITAS is one of the world’s most sensitive detectors of astrophysical very high energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) gamma rays. This observatory […]

Improving our understanding of machine learning robustness - in microscopy and beyond A central goal when applying machine learning in the biomedical research and medical imaging is to answer relevant […]

Muon Hunting with the Crowd: Combining Humans and Machines to Solve Big Data Problems In this presentation, I will describe the Zooniverse.org citizen science platform as a tool to gather […]

Thermal X-ray emission from supernova remnants in 3D (M)HD simulations Every supernova (SN) injects around 10^51 ergs into the interstellar medium (ISM), shaping the ISM’s chemical, thermal, and dynamic evolution. […]

Signal reconstruction for fields using probabilistic forward modeling Many inference tasks in observational astronomy take the form of reconstruction problems where the underlying quantities of interest are fields (functions of […]

Rotation-powered pulsars and their nebulae – the eROSITA view SRG/eROSITA is a soft X-ray (0.2 - 10 keV) telescope which has carried out the deepest X-ray all-sky survey to date. […]

Intricacies of searching for supernova remnants at (very) high energies off the Galactic plane Supernova remnants (SNRs) have traditionally been considered prime candidates for the acceleration of particles to high […]

Black hole evaporation and quantum gravity Hawking's seminal result, that black holes behave as black bodies with a non-vanishing temperature, suggests that black holes should evaporate. However, Hawking's derivation is […]
