EVN: Series of online seminars “The sharpest view of the radio Universe: VLBI – Connecting Astronomers Worldwide”

The European VLBI Network (EVN) is pleased to announce a series of online seminars “The sharpest view of the radio Universe: VLBI – Connecting Astronomers Worldwide”. Seven speakers will cover 7 different science topics, and the talks will occur roughly every 7 weeks between early July 2020 and the EVN Symposium, which has been rescheduled to July 12-16, 2021. These talks will illustrate how Very Long Baseline Interferometry can improve our understanding of many astronomical phenomena, from stars to galaxies, and the talks are aimed at a broad astronomical audience.

The first seminar will take place on Wednesday 8 July 2020, 10:30 CEST. Cristiana Spingola (University of Bologna) will talk about “Using Strong Gravitational Lensing to Zoom in on High-Redshift Galaxies”.
