Pulsar Science with the SKA Observatory The large instantaneous sensitivity, a wide frequency coverage and flexible observation modes with large number of beams in the sky are the main features of the SKA observatory's two telescopes, the S...

Loads of Square Kilometer Array pulsar goodness on the arXiv this morning!! #highenergyastro 🔭 For an overview of all of the papers see here:

Hey, astronomers. Can you imagine astronomy research without ADS?!?!? No? So, have you filled out the ADS survey yet?

Help archives help you!

Jeremiah Ostriker, Who Plumbed Dark Forces That Shape Universe, Dies at 86 There’s more to the universe than meets the eye, he found. His studies led astronomy to the dark side, changing our view of what’s out there.

RIP Jerry Ostriker, one of our most creative and influential theoretical astrophysicists.

The magnetic and turbulent kinetic energy density relation holds across all ISM phases and is more fundamental than the magnetic field-density relation... see arxiv.org/pdf/2503.236....

Come on folk, get off your butts! Let's thank @arc-tracker.bsky.social. 3500+ of you follow their posts about proposed changes in ARC funding & which schemes remain open for now. But only 135 of you have signed up to support their nomination for a Eureka prize. Sign!

Black text on white background. Screenshot from ARC’s Grants Calendar webpage showing which schemes will go ahead next year (upper bullet points), and which will be “paused” pending the outcomes of the review of the National Competitive Grants Program (lower bullet points).

ARC has “paused” future rounds of grant schemes pending outcomes of its NCGP Policy Review.

All schemes previously scheduled to open before 1 July this year will go ahead.

But next year’s Laureates, Industry Fellowships & Discovery Indigenous won’t.

Hi Australian Researchers. I have a plan. Let's thank the amazing @arc-tracker.bsky.social for a decade of selfless work by nominating them for a Eureka Prize (Leadership in science). Are you with me? If so, repost this. Please also reply and state your support for this quest. We can do this people.

Super fun!

Truth has been spoken... but what about helicity?

2024 wrap up... thanks to amazing collaborators and students...

Come join the exoplanets team at UniSQ in Australia. Our team is seeking multiple PhD positions to understand the formation and evolution of planetary systems, involving ongoing programs on JWST, HST, and VLT. See AAS advert. Applications before March 07.

Seems like nothing major has changed since 1989 (found this proceedings in my book shelf at home). I think it was the first east meets west magnetic fields meeting!
