A Sign in Space part 2, a new simulated First Contact scenario engaging the global scientific SETI network, and integrating deep space technologies into SETI search
Daniela de Paulis, Andrea Melis, Daniel Estevez
The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence programme aims to find evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence. SETI scientists pursue this objective by searching for technosignatur…
Toward the Italian Astronomical Community's Contribution to HWO: Science, Technology, and Instrument Concepts
A. Fontana, F. Annibali, N. Antonietti +101
This paper summarizes the interest of the Italian astronomical community in the possible participation in the development of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). It is largely b…
Observational Evidence of an Internal Shock Collision in the Relativistic Jet of the Nearby Radio Galaxy 3C 111
Kenzo Kawamura, Motoki Kino, Mareki Honma +21
We report 10 epochs of 22 GHz East Asia To Italy: Nearly Global VLBI (EATING VLBI) observations of the nearby radio galaxy 3C~111 obtained from 2020 to 2023. Combined with VLBA dat…
Correlation between active regions' spectra at high radio frequencies and solar flare occurrences
Sara Mulas, Alberto Pellizzoni, Marco Marongiu +31
High radio frequencies observations with the Italian network of large single-dish radio telescopes resulted in ~450 solar images between 2018 and 2023 in K-band frequency range (18…
The First High Frequency Technosignature Search Survey with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
Lorenzo Manunza, Alice Vendrame, Luca Pizzuto +30
The quest for radio signals from technologically-advanced extraterrestrial intelligence has traditionally concentrated on the vicinity of 1.4 GHz. In this paper, we extend the sear…
Precessing jet nozzle connecting to a spinning black hole in M87
Yuzhu Cui, Kazuhiro Hada, Tomohisa Kawashima +76
The nearby radio galaxy M87 offers a unique opportunity to explore the connections between the central supermassive black hole and relativistic jets. Previous studies of the inner…
The mm-to-cm SED of spiral galaxies. Synergies between NIKA2 and SRT instruments
S. Bianchi, M. Murgia, A. Melis +9
The mm-to-cm range of the Spectral Energy Distribution of spiral galaxies remains largely unexplored. Its coverage is required to disentangle the contribution of dust emission, fre…
The Sardinia Radio Telescope: From a Technological Project to a Radio Observatory
I. Prandoni, M. Murgia, A. Tarchi +43
[Abridged] The Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT) is the new 64-m dish operated by INAF (Italy). Its active surface will allow us to observe at frequencies of up to 116 GHz. At the mom…
Observations of Supernova Remnants with the Sardinia Radio Telescope
E. Egron, A. Pellizzoni, S. Loru +11
In the frame of the Astronomical Validation activities for the 64m Sardinia Radio Telescope, we performed 5-22 GHz imaging observations of the complex-morphology supernova remnants…
Pulsar observations with European telescopes for testing gravity and detecting gravitational waves
D. Perrodin, C. G. Bassa, G. H. Janssen +20
A background of nanohertz gravitational waves from supermassive black hole binaries could soon be detected by pulsar timing arrays, which measure the times-of-arrival of radio puls…
