拉索发现黑洞是PeV宇宙线加速器

<p>拉索在银河系内发现了许多“拍电子伏加速器(PaVetron)”，其中的一部分以第一个黑洞PaVetron源表的形式发表，清楚显示出一个新的宇宙线源的“类”。最引人瞩目的是存在一个“超级-PaVetron”。还发现了一个近乎完美的黑洞+喷流的系统，让人类能够细致的研究黑洞吸积盘、喷流的产生等基本的物理问题。更重要的是我们发现，大约10个左右的源，将足以提供宇宙线“膝”及其以上的宇宙线的流量。拉索刚刚发表了质子在膝附近的能谱，...</p>

Exploring the dark sector with gravitational lensing and wide field surveys in imaging and spectroscopy [EN]

<p>Since the discovery of the accelerated expansion of the universe in the 2000, dark matter and dark energy have been the main drivers of research in observational cosmology. At the same time, gravitational lensing, boosted by the Hubble Space Telescope observations, has become a key probe of the dark sector. In this talk, I will review this topic and focus on my research in Euclid and in DESI. I...</p>

X-ray polarization study of supernova remnants [EN]

<p>The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) opens a new window to map magnetic fields in regions of freshly accelerated high-energy particles. By capturing the first spatially resolved X-ray polarization images of supernova remnants—including Cassiopeia A, Tycho, SN 1006, Vela Jr., RX J1713.7−3946, and RCW 86—IXPE probes the turbulent magnetic fields shaped by the Galaxy’s fastest shocks....</p>

Binary around a BIG black hole v.s. Star around a BIG binary [EN]

<p>The detections of gravitational waves (GWs) from merging binary black holes (BHs) have motivated extensive research on the dynamical formation of such compact black hole binaries (BHBs). Recent studies have highlighted the potential role of tertiary-induced mergers via von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) oscillations in generating the BHBs detected by collaborations like LIGO/VIRGO/KAGRA. I will discu...</p>

The progress of the SVOM Mission [EN]

<p>SVOM (Space-based multiband Variable Object Monitor) is a Chinese-French space mission mainly designed to study Gamma-Ray Bursts. The satellite has four instruments to detect and localize the prompt GRB emission and measure the evolution of the afterglow in the visible band and in soft X-rays, and a VHF communication system enabling the fast transmission of SVOM alerts to the ground. The ground...</p>

Probing Active Galactic Nuclei with unprecedented precision — insights from VLTI/GRAVITY(+)

<p>The inner structures of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are essential for probing the fundamental parameters of the central supermassive black hole (BH), understanding accretion physics, and investigating the physical connection between the BH and its host galaxy. The reverberation mapping (RM) technique has been widely used to study the broad-line region (BLR), the dust torus, and the accretion ...</p>

What is left for astronomers to do in the era of Artificial Intelligence?

<p>In this area of rapid development of AI, astronomers&#39; work is also evolving. What should we focus in training our students and our computers? In this talk I will present some of my thoughts on the subject and hope the audience will share in the discussion.BIOCharling Tao is an Emerita Director of Research in CNRS CPPM (Centre de Physique de Particules de Marseille) where she co-created the cosm...</p>

Milky Way Structure and Dynamics

<p>As the only large spiral galaxy in which we can study a significant fraction of the individual stars, the Milky Way offers astronomers a unique laboratory to study the processes that shape galaxies. As much of our fundamental understanding of astrophysics is anchored in the Milky Way, study of our Galaxy is critical to broad areas of astrophysics, including extragalactic astronomy. Ongoing surv...</p>

How to quantify textures and random fields in astrophysics?

<p>Extracting information from stochastic fields is a ubiquitous task in science. &nbsp;However, from cosmology to biology, it tends to be done either through correlation analyses, which is often too limited to capture the full complexity, or through the use of neural nets, which require large training sets and lack interpretability. &nbsp;I will present a new approach that borrows ideas from both extremes ...</p>
