The closure phase, the sum of the three Fourier phases in a telescope triangle, is an important tool in astronomical interferometry, helping to reconstruct the geometries of the ob…
Stellar physics at sub-nanoradian angular resolution
P. Batista, J. Biteau, C. Carlile +36
Many stars -- if they could be imaged with enough angular resolution -- would exhibit features expected from theory but not possible to extract from spectra. We may group these by…
The Science of the Einstein Telescope
Adrian Abac, Raul Abramo, Simone Albanesi +485
Einstein Telescope (ET) is the European project for a gravitational-wave (GW) observatory of third-generation. In this paper we present a comprehensive discussion of its science ob…

Andreas Zmija, Naomi Vogel, Frederik Wohlleben +3
Intensity interferometry for astrophysical observations has gained increasing interest in the last decade. The method of correlating photon fluxes at different telescopes for high…
Joint H.E.S.S. and Fermi-LAT analysis of the region around PSR J1813-1749
T. Wach, A. M. W. Mitchell, V. Joshi +1
HESS J1813-178 is one of the brightest sources detected during the first HESS Galactic Plane survey. The compact source, also detected by MAGIC, is believed to be a pulsar wind neb…
Modelling of highly extended Gamma-ray emission around the Geminga Pulsar as detected with H.E.S.S
A. M. W. Mitchell, S. Caroff
Geminga is an enigmatic radio-quiet gamma-ray pulsar located at a mere 250 pc distance from Earth. Extended very-high-energy gamma-ray emission around the pulsar has been detected…
Optical intensity interferometry lab tests in preparation of stellar diameter measurements at IACTs at GHz photon rates
Andreas Zmija, Naomi Vogel, Gisela Anton +4
Astronomical intensity interferometry enables quantitative measurements of the source geometry by measuring the photon fluxes in individual telescopes and correlating them, rather…
Comparing Different Approaches for Stellar Intensity Interferometry
Sebastian Karl, Andreas Zmija, Stefan Richter +7
Stellar intensity interferometers correlate photons within their coherence time and could overcome the baseline limitations of existing amplitude interferometers. Intensity interfe…
Combined dark matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, H.E.S.S., MAGIC, and VERITAS
Celine Armand, Eric Charles, Mattia di Mauro +13
Cosmological and astrophysical observations suggest that 85\% of the total matter of the Universe is made of Dark Matter (DM). However, its nature remains one of the most challengi…
