    Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are key probes for understanding the growth of supermassive black holes and their interplay with galaxy evolution. In the coming decades, the synergy between current and future observational facilities will significantly advance our ability to detect and characterize AGN across cosmic time.

    In this context, particular emphasis is placed on the scientific...

    Talk

    The forthcoming Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory (CTAO) will be the first facility based on Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT) to be operated as an observatory open to the community through open calls for observing time and public data access. With arrays of large multiplicity, three classes of telescopes, and state-of-the-art technology implemented end-to-end, CTAO will...

    Talk

    KM3NeT is a deep-sea neutrino observatory under construction in the Mediterranean Sea. The experiment comprises two Cherenkov detectors: ARCA, optimised for the detection of TeV–PeV neutrinos, and ORCA, dedicated to the measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters. The construction of ARCA is progressing steadily, and the detector is already delivering competitive physics results in its...

  6. 39. (Highlight) The IXPE revolution in AGN: from the hot corona to the torus
    Dr Vittoria Elvezia Gianolli (Clemson University)

    Talk

    The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) has opened a new observational window on Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), adding X-ray polarimetry to spectroscopy and timing as a fundamental diagnostic of their central engines. By directly probing geometry, IXPE is providing the first constraints on the structure of both the hot corona and the obscuring torus in radio-quiet AGN.

    Abstract: Galaxy evolution can only be understood if its AGN phases are accounted for. For that, a complete and pure census of AGN is needed. Hunting for AGN in X-rays is the most obvious way to go, given the low emission from galaxies at this frequency. Over the last 20 years, XMM and Chandra have mostly provided pencil-beam surveys, thus sampling the faint and high-redshift regimes. Finally,...
