Sydney, Australia (SPX) Jan 04, 2024 - The field of extragalactic astronomy has witnessed a significant advancement with the FAST All Sky HI survey (FASHI), a project designed to utilize the unique capabilities of the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). This ambitious survey, spanning an impressive 22000 square degrees of the sky, aims to revolutionize our understanding of the universe's HI content and its large-scale structure.

FAST, renowned for its massive aperture... Читать дальше...

Boston MA (SPX) Jan 04, 2024 - A colorful, festive image shows different types of light containing the remains of not one, but at least two, exploded stars. This supernova remnant is known as 30 Doradus B (30 Dor B for short) and is part of a larger region of space where stars have been continuously forming for the past 8 to 10 million years. It is a complex landscape of dark clouds of gas, young stars, high-energy shocks, and superheated gas, located 160,000 light-years away from Earth in the Large Magellanic Cloud... Читать дальше...

Paris (ESA) Jan 03, 2024 - Through exquisite, millimetre-scale, formation flying, the dual satellites making up ESA's Proba-3 will accomplish what was previously a space mission impossible: cast a precisely held shadow from one platform to the other, in the process blocking out the fiery Sun to observe its ghostly surrounding atmosphere on a prolonged basis.

Ahead of the Proba-3 pair launching together later this year, the scientists who will make use of Proba-3 observations were able to see the satellites with their own eyes. Читать дальше...

Boston MA (SPX) Jan 04, 2024 - Explaining the behavior of trained neural networks remains a compelling puzzle, especially as these models grow in size and sophistication. Like other scientific challenges throughout history, reverse-engineering how artificial intelligence systems work requires a substantial amount of experimentation: making hypotheses, intervening on behavior, and even dissecting large networks to examine individual neurons. To date, most successful experiments have involved large amounts of human oversight. Читать дальше...
