SUMMARY:S&A Colloquium: Paola Di Ninni (INAF)
DESCRIPTION:The Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF): Radio astronomy projects and my dedicated research activity\n\nAbstract: \n\nI will talk about the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF)\, a public research institute consisting of more than 1\,400 people organized into 16 institutes spread from the North to the South of Italy. After an introduction to the diverse activities at INAF within the fields of technology\, astronomy\, and astrophysics\, I will focus on the field of radio astronomyby giving an overview of the Italian infrastructure: three radio telescopes located in Sardinia\, Sicily\, and Emilia-Romagna\, and INAF’s contribution to international projects such as SKA and ALMA. I will conclude by talking about my research experience at INAF\, where I dedicate my time to technologies for radio astronomy—an exciting field that bridges cutting-edge engineering with our deepest questions about the universe. \nJoin Event on Microsoft Teams\nLocation\n\nOrganiser\n\nEvent details\nDownload iCal\nCategory\nColloquia

SUMMARY:S&A Colloquium: Dr Konstantinos Kolokythas (Rhodes University and SARAO)
DESCRIPTION:From Group Dynamics to Cluster Halos: A Multi-Band View of Galaxy Evolution in Groups and the Diffuse Skies in Clusters \n\nAbstract: \n\nMuch of the evolution of galaxies before they are assimilated into clusters occurs in groups where AGN feedback has the greatest impact on galaxy formation and evolution. Conversely\, clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures in the Universe\, with radio observations being powerful tools for detecting diffuse cluster-scale synchrotron emission\, which conveys information about the cluster formation history. In the first part of this talk\, I will summarize results from studies of the central brightest group early-type galaxies (BGEs) of an optically selected\, statistically complete sample of 53 nearby groups (<80 Mpc; CLoGS sample)\, observed in radio 235/610 MHz (GMRT)\, CO (IRAM/APEX) and X-ray (Chandra and XMM-Newton) frequencies examining the balance between hot and cold gas (AGN feedback) and the AGN activity and star formation in groups\, presenting also updated results from MeerKAT L-Band observations.  In the second part\, I will summarise results from the recently published MeerKAT’s Galaxy Cluster Legacy Survey (MGCLS) diffuse radio emission catalogue work (Kolokythas et al. 2025)\, a project which originally comprised the first MeerKAT L-Band long-track observations of 115 galaxy clusters at 1.28 GHz across the Southern sky. I will focus on the discoveries and properties of the various diffuse radio emission structures detected in MGCLS galaxy clusters\, which reveal new areas of investigation in cluster formation and evolution that pave the way for the SKA era.  \n\nPlease note that the event timezone is AWST (UTC+8 hrs) \n\nLocation\n\nOrganiser\n\n\n \n\n\nEvent details\nDownload iCal\nCategory\nColloquia
