Multi-messenger Lighthouses of the Universe: The many extremes of Active Galactic Nuclei Abstract: Active galactic nuclei (AGN) make the most significant contribution to the overall energy balance in the Universe […]
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 […]
Wir laden ein zum: Tag der offenen Tür der Dr. Karl Remeis-Sternwarte Bamberg Astronomisches Institut der Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg Samstag, 26. Oktober 2024 von 15 - 24 Uhr Programm: Kinderprogramm […]
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 […]
Satellite Constellations & Astronomy: What is the problem? What are we doing about it? In recent years, large satellite constellations have been launched into low-Earth orbit to provide low-latency, global […]
Optical spectroscopy and imaging of blazars for the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory Blazars are the brightest persistent sources in the high-energy and very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray sky. Because their UV/optical radiation […]
Finding evidence for self-enrichment and supermassive stars in forming globular clusters Self-enrichment is one of the leading explanations for chemical anomalies in globular clusters. In this scenario, a polluter star […]
