With the establishment of the AUT University 12m radio telescope at Warkworth, New Zealand has now become a part of the international Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) community. A major product of VLBI observations are images in the…
The NSF's Karl G.\ Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) was used at 3~cm to search for accretion signatures from intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) in 19 globular star clusters (GCs) in NGC\,3115, an early-type galaxy at a distance of 9.4 Mpc.…
After decades of experimental projects and fast-paced technical advances, optical / infrared (O/IR) interferometry has seen a revolution in the last years. The GRAVITY instrument at the VLTI with four 8 meter telescopes reaches thousand…
The science case and associated science requirements for a next-generation Very Large Array (ngVLA) are described, highlighting the five key science goals developed out of a community-driven vision of the highest scientific priorities in…
In the first two years since the launch of the Fermi Observatory, the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has detected over 500 Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), of which 18 were confidently detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) above 100 MeV.…
The TANAMI (Tracking AGN with Austral Milliarcsecond Interferometry) program provides comprehensive VLBI monitoring of extragalactic gamma-ray sources south of declination -30 degrees. Operating at two radio frequencies (8 and 22 GHz), this…
We employ an efficient method for identifying gamma-ray sources across the entire sky, leveraging advanced algorithms from Fermi p y, and cleverly utilizing the Galactic diffuse background emission model to partition the entire sky into 72…
The Gamma-Ray Imager (GRI) is a novel mission concept that will provide an unprecedented sensitivity leap in the soft gamma-ray domain by using for the first time a focusing lens built of Laue diffracting crystals. The lens will cover an…
Jetted plasma outflows from active galactic nuclei (AGN) represent the most energetic phenomena in the known universe, and play a key role in regulating galaxy formation through feedback processes. The JVLA and VLBA have played an…
In extragalactic jets, the apparent position of the bright/narrow end (the core) depends on the observing frequency, owing to synchrotron self-absorption and external absorption. The effect must be taken into account in order to achieve…
The Gamma-Ray Monitor (GRM) is a key scientific payload onboard the Space-based Multi-band Variable Object Monitor (SVOM) satellite, designed specifically for the detection and study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Launched into a 625 km…
