80. Infrared-Radio synergies in Galactic Interstellar medium and star formation - 25'

Sergio Molinari

Oral

I will illustrate recent developments in Galactic star formation and ISM studies from large panoramic surveys in the infrared and submillimeter. The amount and the quality of data now available over our entire Galaxy call for renewed efforts also in the radio. SKA allows a new leap in sensitivity and mapping capabilities at high spatial resolution both in continuum and spectroscopy to unveil...

79. Synergies between SKA and LSST: the transient sky - 25'

Maria Teresa Botticella

Oral

The LSST will be a wide-field 8m class telescope designed to obtain multi-band images over a substantial fraction of the sky every few nights. Multiple goals are expected in many relevant astrophysical areas, such as : (i) taking an inventory of the Solar System; (ii) mapping the Milky Way; (iii) exploring the transient universe; and (iv) probing dark energy and dark matter. The SKA and LSST...

8. Definitive characterization of the ISM in the Local Universe: SKA and other facilities - 15'

Oral

Understanding the interplay between the various components of the interstellar medium (ISM: dust, atomic and molecular gas) in galaxies of the Local Universe is of fundamental importance for studies of galactic formation and evolution. In the last decade, thanks in particular to Herschel, we made a considerable effort in the study of one of these components, the dust. In this framework, the...

81. GRAWITA: the role of SKA - 25'

Eliana Palazzi

04/12/2018, 17:15

Oral

The first joint gravitational wave (GW) and electromagnetic (EM) signals detection in August 2017 marked the dawn of GW+EM multi-messenger astronomy. The GRAWITA collaboration has been at the forefront of this new era providing the most impressive spectro-photometric optical/near-infrared data set on the EM source. These observations secured the first compelling evidence for the existence of...

82. Synergies between SKA and CTA - 25'

Stefano Vercellone

04/12/2018, 17:40

Oral

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the next generation gamma-ray observatory, open to the scientific community, to investigate the very high-energy emission from
a large variety of celestial sources in the 20 GeV - 300 TeV energy range. The full array, distributed over two sites, one in the northern and one in the southern hemisphere, will provide whole-sky coverage and will improve...

50. The THESEUS space mission and its sinergy with SKA - 15'

Lorenzo Amati (INAF - OAS Bologna)

04/12/2018, 18:05

Oral

The Transient High-Energy Sky and Early Universe Surveyor (THESEUS) is a space mission concept under study by ESA as candidate M5 mission aiming at exploiting Gamma-Ray Bursts for investigating the early Universe and at providing a substantial advancement of multi-messenger and time-domain astrophysics. THESEUS will address main open issues in cosmology such as, e.g., star formation rate and...

30. The latest Fermi catalogs and SKA prospects for high energy studies - 15'

Marcello Giroletti (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

05/12/2018, 09:50

Oral

The Fermi-LAT Fourth Source Catalog (4FGL), based on 8 years of E>50 MeV photon data, will comprise about 5500 sources. This number corresponds to a 60% increase relative to 3FGL. The talk will describe the analysis improvements over 3FGL and the new catalog features. About 66% of the sources will have high-confidence counterparts detected at other wavelengths, both extragalactic (mainly...

55. Synergies between SKA and Athena - 30'

F. Panessa / F. Vazza (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

05/12/2018, 11:30

Oral

In this talk we will highlight the existing synergies between SKA and Athena in the framework of two major research fields: AGN physics and cosmic web studies.
AGN physics:
A rich phenomenology of jets, winds, and accretion states has been observed in both active galactic nuclei (AGN) and X+ray binaries (XRBs), suggesting a connection between the accretion and ejection flows at different black...

19. Complementarity and synergy with CMB projects - 15'

Carlo Burigana (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

05/12/2018, 14:00

Oral

The synergy between current and future cosmic microwave background (CMB) projects and the extreme sensitivity and resolution of the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will be crucial for a wide set of themes relevant for cosmology and astrophysics at different cosmic epochs, including cosmological parameter estimation, integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect and constraints on dark energy, primordial...

14. The IDIA Cloud and the HIPPO Project - 15'

Mattia Vaccari (Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica (INAF))

05/12/2018, 15:10

Oral

The IDIA cloud is a cloud computing system being developed at the Institute for Data Intensive Astronomy (IDIA). The IDIA cloud is a data intensive research facility whose main aim is to facilitate the reduction and the scientific exploitation of MeerKAT data. Building on the IDIA cloud, the HELP-IDIA Panchromatic Project (HIPPO) is developing an environment for the effective multi-wavelength...

84. Synergies between SKA and ELT: the high-z Universe - 25'

Laura Pentericci

Oral

The past few years have seen an enormous progress in our ability to understand the very early universe before the end of cosmic reionization.However many open questions remain such as when exactly and how reionization happened and which were the main sources responsible for this transition. The end of the so called dark ages will be explored by SKA which will produce high resolution maps of...
