We have entered the age of big data in astrophysics and radio
astronomy is no exception. The Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP)
conducts wide-field radio surveys of the southern skies. With
millions of radio-bright sources in the survey regions we...
The cosmic history of galaxy formation is the history of star
formation writ large. Some of the most important processes
affecting galaxy evolution involve coupling between stellar and
gaseous components, since massive stars are the primary
energy...
The holographic principle suggests that the laws of physics
governing our universe can be explained by a simpler, equivalent
theory defined on the edge of spacetime. However, its realizations
in String Theory are associated with a type of universe...
The existence of dark matter is strongly supported by an
abundance of astrophysical and cosmological evidence, but has yet
to be directly detected. Liquid Xe detectors have been a game
changer in the field of dark matter detection, bringing
about...
Dramatic rises in ground-based light pollution in recent years
as well as increasingly congested low-Earth orbits are leading to
brightening night skies worldwide, with consequences reaching far
beyond this decade. I share calculations of the...
Abstract: In 2022, the Event Horizon Telescope
collaboration revealed the first images of the shadow of our Milky
Way supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*). Since its
detection in the mid-70s, this bright radio source in the
Galactic...
