“… a good rule of thumb is to treat accessibility as a core part of your compliance strategy. Aiming for 5%–10% of your compliance budget is a solid starting point. For some, that may mean 0.1%–0…

Spectral analysis of HD 49798, a bright, hydrogen-deficient sdO-type donor star in an accreting X-ray binary
Context: HD 49798 is a bright ($m_{\rm V} = 8.287$), hot (effective temperature $T_{\rm eff} = 45000$ K) subdwarf star of the spectral type O (sdO). It is the only confirmed sdO-type mass-donor star of an X-ray binary that has a high-mass (1.28 $M_\odot$) white-dwarf or neutron-star primary with a spin period of only 13.2 s. Aims: Since a high-quality spectrum of HD 49798, obtained with the Tübingen Ultraviolet Echelle Spectrometer (TUES), that has never been analyzed before is available in th…

Floating platform to produce synthetic fuels using wind, seawater, and air
Off-grid, modular, and seaworthy: KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) and partners intend to produce synthetic fuels on a floating platform using wind energy, seawater, and ambient air. For this purpose, the "PtX-Wind" project was launched under the H2Mare lead project. A corresponding modular plant was installed on a barge and lies operational at anchor in Bremerhaven. Later this year, it will start producing synthetic fuel directly on the sea just off Helgoland Island.

I was so busy with all the preparations, that I forgot to tell you: I‘m at #NeosCon! Yeah, it’s that time of the year again, meeting old and new friends and recharging our community batteries. As always, we’re having such a great time! I‘ll post some more details after the conference.
Greetings from Karlsruhe!

Intelligent Virtual Sonographer (IVS): Enhancing Physician-Robot-Patient Communication
The advancement and maturity of large language models (LLMs) and robotics have unlocked vast potential for human-computer interaction, particularly in the field of robotic ultrasound. While existing research primarily focuses on either patient-robot or physician-robot interaction, the role of an intelligent virtual sonographer (IVS) bridging physician-robot-patient communication remains underexplored. This work introduces a conversational virtual agent in Extended Reality (XR) that facilitates …

The winner of the 2025 #KarlSchwarzschild Medal - #FredHoyle ... who has been the winner of the very same medal (the highest award by the German astronomy community) 33 years ago. #ag2025goerlitz

@… By the way, I lived 6 years in Stockholm, where I worked at Riksradion, and 15 years in Göteborg, which I consider to be my proper Swedish hometown. I also spent a miserable year in Örebro, a likewise miserable year in Karlskrona, and a fairly pleasant year in Malmö-Helsingborg (commuting btw the two for work).
I don't miss the place, do you?

The ALPINE-CRISTAL-JWST survey: spatially resolved star formation relations at $z\sim5$
Star formation governs galaxy evolution, shaping stellar mass assembly and gas consumption across cosmic time. The Kennicutt-Schmidt (KS) relation, linking star formation rate (SFR) and gas surface densities, is fundamental to understand star formation regulation, yet remains poorly constrained at $z > 2$ due to observational limitations and uncertainties in locally calibrated gas tracers. The [CII] $158 {\rm μm}$ line has recently emerged as a key probe of the cold ISM and star formation in t…
