The Atacama Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (AtLAST): enabling large-scale sub-mm science beyond 2030
Claudia Cicone, Tony Mroczkowski, Evanthia Hatziminaoglou +38
AtLAST is designed to be the largest (sub-)mm single-dish astronomical observatory and the first climate-neutral modern research infrastructure. It offers a unique combination of l…
The Emergence of Prebiotic Chemistry in the ISM
Izaskun Jimenez-Serra, Giuliana Cosentino, Francisco Montenegro-Montes +22
Contrary to popular belief, the interstellar medium (ISM) is not empty; it is filled with atoms, dust particles, and molecules. Some of these molecules may have been the very build…
Serendipitous and targeted mm/sub-mm transient searches with wide-FOV telescope
Karri Koljonen, Claudio Ricci, Thomas Stanke +4
The millimeter/sub-millimeter (mm/sub-mm) sky remains a rich but under-explored frontier for transient and variable phenomena. A wide-field, high-sensitivity instrument with a larg…
The role of supernova remnants for the emergence of pre-biotic chemistry in molecular clouds
Giuliana Cosentino, Izaskun Jiménez-Serra, Laura Colzi +11
There is growing evidence that the Sun might have formed within a nebula impacted by at least one SNR. In this scenario, ejecta and shocks from SNRs may have provided the elements…
