    Invited Talk

    The KM3NeT neutrino telescope is a research infrastructure currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. It consists of two deep-sea detectors: ORCA, near Toulon, France, and ARCA, off the coast of Sicily, Italy. ORCA is designed for precision study of atmospheric neutrinos in the GeV range, whereas for ARCA the aim is to detect and study cosmic neutrinos of higher energies. KM3NeT...

    With the successful observations and synergies of golbal instruments and observatories, the multi-messenger has shown great ability and potential to solve the mystery of cosmic-ray origin. However, there are still quite some challenges, which may need the next-generation neutrino telescope with better angular resolution and bigger effective area. In this talk, I will present our proposal of...

    The IceCube neutrino observatory first detected high-energy neutrinos of extraterrestrial origin in 2013, marking a significant milestone for multimessenger astronomy. However, due to its limited angular resolution and sensitivity, only a few neutrino events can be associated with known sources observed in other bands. The exact production mechanisms of celestial neutrinos remain elusive....

    Dissertation Talk

    The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a network of antennas across the globe currently used to image supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at a frequency of 230 GHz. Since the release of the image of M87 in 2019 and, subsequently, that of Sgr A in 2022 by the EHT collaboration, the focus has shifted towards dynamically imaging SMBHs. This has led to a search for potential sites to extend and fill...

  5. 58. A Fast Imaging Pipeline for Transient Detection in Interferometric Data

    Contributed Talk

    Modern radio interferometers generate vast volumes of raw data, demanding efficient processing to enable real-time or quasi-real-time astronomical analysis. A critical challenge is the detection of transient sources within wide-field interferometric images, which requires rapid imaging and robust discrimination between true transients and false positives.

    In this talk, we present a Fast...
