The Radio Galaxy Zoo: EMU is going live! Help us link radio sources to their parent galaxies and classify them with simple descriptive tags. Discover exciting and unknown objects waiting to be found. Can't wait to hear about your discoveries!

MPhys (final year) research projects are one of my favourite things about the @UoMPhysics undergrad degree. I find them a lot of fun - and it’s really nice to hear that the students also enjoy them! 🙏✨

In our new paper on @arxiv today we look at the potential for using directly extracted E2-equivariant features for the classification of radio galaxies as an alternative to group-equivariant CNNs 💻📡 Great work led by Natalie Lines & Joan Font-Quer! ✨ arxiv.org/abs/2406.09024

It is excellent to see European research being reinforced like this - and especially to see the connections between innovation and fundamental research being recognised. @ERC_Research has been instrumental in supporting my research and the research of many other scientists 🙏
“Horizon Europe must be reinforced by focusing on the most effective programmes such as the European Research Council” @EmmanuelMacron stressed Europe should become “a continent that invests in breakthrough innovation & advanced fundamental research". sciencebusiness.net/horizon-…
