Quantum radio astronomy: Data encodings and quantum image processing

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Emma Elizabeth Tolley, Stefano Corda

We explore applications of quantum computing for radio interferometry and astronomy using recent developments in quantum image processing. We evaluate the suitability of different quantum image representations using a toy quantum computing image reconstruc ...

Quantifying the information impact of future searches for exoplanetary biosignatures

Claudio Grimaldi

One of the major goals for astronomy in the next decades is the remote search for biosignatures (i.e., the spectroscopic evidence of biological activity) in exoplanets. Here we adopt a Bayesian statistical framework to discuss the implications of such futu ...

Observations of Sagittarius A* during the pericenter passage of the G2 object with MAGIC

Thomas Günther Bretz

Context. We present the results of a multi-year monitoring campaign of the Galactic center (GC) with the MAGIC telescopes. These observations were primarily motivated by reports that a putative gas cloud (G2) would be passing in close proximity to the supe ...

Large Micromirror Array Based on a Scalable Technology for Astronomical Instrumentation

Michael David Canonica

Understanding the formation of galaxies and studying the expansion of the Universe, need the spectral characterization of faint astronomical objects such as stars or galaxies. From these spectra, the distance, the velocity and the chemical composition of t ...
