– open until July 1, 2019 – RadioNet is a consortium of 27 institutions in Europe, the Republic of Korea and South Africa, integrating at European level world-class infrastructures for research in radio astronomy. RadioNet has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 730562, in order [...]
Cordis (EU Reasearch Results) has nominated jointly RadioNet and BlackHoleCam as EU-Project-of-the-month, for their contribution to the image of the black hole. The ERC funded BlackHoleProject played a major role in the EHT collaboration, whereas RadioNet helped Europe maintain and develop cutting-edge radio astronomy infrastructures that led to this fantastic achievement.

RadioNet has produced a plaque that will make visible to the general public the EC/H2020 support of the RadioNet partners´ infrastructures. After 76m Lovell telescope (University of Manchester/UK), Torun 32m telescope (N. Copernicus University/PL), the Yebes 40m telescope (IGN/ES), and the Effelsberg 100m telescope (MPIfR/DE) - the plaques have been installed at prominent and visible places at [...]
We are pleased to inform you that the Centenary of Astrophysical Jets conference will be held in the SKA Global Headquarters, Jodrell Bank Observatory, Cheshire, UK, from 23-26 July 2019. We look forward to welcoming you to Jodrell Bank Observatory to what will be a landmark event in the review of past, present and future [...]
RadioNet has produced a plaque that will make visible to the general public the EC/H2020 support of the RadioNet partners´ infrastructures. Jodrell Bank/e-Merlin array has started the campaign with putting the plaque. The action has been followed by the Torun 32m telescope (N. Copernicus University/PL), the Yebes 40m telescope (IGN/ES), and the Effelsberg 100m telescope (MPIfR/DE). The plaques [...]
Breakthrough discovery to be announced on April 10th at 15:00 CEST - please follow here the streaming of the press conference to be held in Brussels with this purpose.
The workshop was organised on March 8-8, 2019 in Villa Vigoni/IT and aimed at discussing the first steps of planet formation, substructure in protoplanetary disks, the physical and chemical conditions of volatiles, and the various processes driving accretion onto the star and disk evolution. It focused on presenting and interpreting observations of protoplanetary disks obtained [...]
The founding members of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) signed on March 12, 2019 the international treaty establishing the intergovernmental organisation that will oversee the delivery of the world’s largest radio telescope. Seven countries signed the treaty at present, including Australia, China, Italy, The Netherlands, Portugal, South Africa and the United Kingdom. The Square Kilometre [...]
We are happy to announce that the Eighth European Radio Interferometry School (ERIS) will take place in Gothenburg (Sweden) during the week 7 - 11 October 2019. ERIS will provide a week of lectures and tutorials on how to achieve scientific results from radio interferometry. The topics covered by the lectures/tutorials will include: Calibration and [...]
An international research team has combined radio telescopes from five continents on 12 March 2018 to prove the existence of a narrow stream of material, a so-called jet, emerging from the only gravitational wave event involving two neutron stars observed so far. The research leading to these results has received funding from RadioNet under the [...]
