AXSChat PodcastThe Invisible Link: Hypermobility and NeurodivergenceWhat happens when our bodies and brains are more connected than medicine has led us to believe? In this illuminating conversation, Jane Green MBE, founder and chair of SEDS Connective, unpacks the profound yet often overlooked connection between hypermobility and neurodivergence.After decades of being dismissed as "dim and a hypochondriac," Jane discovered that her physical symptoms and neurodevelopmental differences weren't separate issues but deeply interconnected aspects of her experience. This realization led her to establish SEDS Connective in 2018, now a global charity bringing together conditions that have traditionally been treated in isolation. "For centuries we haven't...

Multi-messenger astrophysicsDecoding Blazars: The Markarian Multiwavelength Data Center**Introduction:**
* This episode discusses the **Markarian Multiwavelength Data Center (MMDC)**, a new web-based tool designed to access and model multiwavelength data from blazar observations.
* MMDC is designed to enhance blazar research by providing a comprehensive framework for data accessibility, analysis, and theoretical interpretation.
* The tool integrates archival data, optical data from all-sky surveys, and newly analyzed datasets in optical/UV, X-ray, and high-energy γ-ray bands.
* **MMDC distinguishes itself from other online platforms by the large quantity of available data and its ability to enable theoretical modeling using machine learning algorithms**.

There is nothing inherently wrong in this, as much of our progress as a society has resulted from such innovation. Over recent years, however, we are seeing a radical departure from incremental innovation. Instead, we look at organisations who intentionally set extremely ambitious innovation objectives, where incremental innovation cannot get the job done. The focus of this talk is to discuss the ways in which organisations mobilise resources to go after bold objectives which can move the needle: Moonshots.

Fakultät für Physik - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 05/05Photometric redshifts and properties of galaxies from the sloan digital sky surveyThe determination of photometric redshifts is essential for many subjects in cosmology and extragalactic astronomy, like the large scale structure of the Universe, gravitational lensing, or galaxy evolution. If the spectral energy distribution (SED) of a galaxy is measured with high enough spectral resolution, the redshift can be easily derived through the absorption and emission lines which are created by the elements in the galaxy. However, currently more telescopes are equipped with large cameras with charged coupled devices (CCDs) that observe the sky through optical filters. With these photometric observations it is possible to detect much fainter astronomical objects than...

Its spectral energy distribution (SED) can be accurately characterized by current instruments because of its close proximity, which makes Mrk~421 one of the best sources to study the nature of blazars. The goal of this PhD thesis is to better understand the mechanisms responsible for the broadband emission and the temporal evolution of Mrk~421. The results might be applied to other blazars which cannot be studied with this level of detail because their emissions are weaker, or they are located further away. This thesis...

Massive black holes and star clusters as well as gas are especially likely to fall into the centers of galaxies by
dynamical friction or dissipation. Many galactic centers harbor supermassive black holes (SMBH)
and dense nuclear (star) clusters which possibly arrived there by these processes.
Nuclear clusters can be formed in situ from gas, or from smaller star clusters which fall to the center.
Since the Milky Way harbors both an SMBH and a nuclear cluster, both can be studied best in the Galactic Center (GC),
which is the closest...
