The International Pulsar Timing Array – IPTA 2017

IPTA is a world wide collaboration, made of the contributions of three continental consortia: EPTA in Europe, PPTA in Australia and NanoGRAV in the US. Its primary goal is to detect gravitational waves in the Nanohertz regime using radio pulsar timing observations. The European part of the collaboration is supported by RadioNet since its foundation in Autumn [...]

HI absorption 2017: a workshop on the status of and preparation for the upcoming surveys

One of the ways to explore gas in the Universe is using HI absorption observations. The new radio telescopes -ASKAP, MeerKAT and Apertif on the WSRT- offer exciting new possibilities for science using HI absorption. Coordinating the groups planning to exploit these data was one of the motives for a small but very lively workshop [...]

HI absorption 2017: a workshop on the status of and preparation for the upcoming surveys

The workshop covers science topics that can be addressed using HI absorption (intervening and associated), including what we can learn about the feedback effects of AGNs on galaxy evolution, the properties of the ISM of galaxies at higher redshift, and the cosmic evolution of HI. The aim is to discuss the current state of affairs [...]
