Launching aboard the European Space Agency's (ESA) Ariane 6 rocket on Tuesday, NASA's CubeSat Radio Interferometry Experiment (CURIE), will use two small cube satellites—which together measure no ...

The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration, with the participation of the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA), has for the first time received radio waves at 0.87 millimeters.

A radio interferometer array operating at 20 GHz would be developed at Indian Institute of Technology, Indore (IIT-I) soon. The work on developing state-of-the-art interferometer, which is perhaps the ...

Early detection of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) relied on radio astronomy due to the obscuring dust in the galactic center, initially identified as a bright radio source in the Sagittarius constellation.

What will eventually become one of the world’s most sensitive radio telescopes has taken its first true peak at the cosmos that it was built to observe. Still in its infancy, SKA-LOW will comprise the ...

Radio interferometric imaging represents a pivotal advance in astronomical observation by combining signals from distributed radio telescopes to synthesise high-resolution images of celestial objects.

MEASUREMENTS of the angular sizes of radio sources made with a 21 cm interferometer between Jodrell Bank and the Royal Radar Establishment, Malvern, over a baseline of more than half a million ...

Heino Falcke is professor of astroparticle physics and radio astronomy at Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands. His main scientific focus is on studying black holes and ultra-high energy ...

When Ken Kellermann ’59 was a sophomore, he and the other physics majors had to take a class in optics. “I thought it was the most boring thing,” he recalls. “It was all 19th-century technology—shine ...
