3I/ATLAS is the third confirmed interstellar object passing through the Solar System. In this work, we conduct narrowband radio technosignature search toward 3I/ATLAS using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST) L-band…
The search for technosignatures--remotely detectable evidence of extraterrestrial technology--draws upon examples from the recent history of Earth as well as projections of Earth's technosphere. Facilities like the Habitable Worlds…
Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) is threatening modern radio astronomy. A classic approach to mitigate its impact on astronomical data involves discarding the corrupted time and frequency data samples through a process called flagging and…
Radio Frequency Fingerprinting (RFF) using deep learning has gained attention as a complementary approach to cryptographic authentication, offering resistance to spoofing, replay attacks, and key leakage. While most RFF approaches rely on…
The GASS is a survey of Galactic atomic hydrogen (HI) emission in the southern sky observed with the Parkes 64-m Radio Telescope. With a sensitivity of 60 mK for a channel width of 1 km/s the GASS is the most sensitive and most accurate…
The upcoming Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) are expected to have the collecting area required to detect potential biosignature gases such as molecular oxygen, $\mathrm{O_2}$, in the atmosphere of terrestrial planets around nearby stars.…
