Hi all, I'm a professional radio astronomer, working full-time in spectrum management (protecting radio astronomy frequencies from cell-phones, Starlink etc.). I like to write software with #Python. In my free time, I enjoy astro photography from my backyard.

My most important research projects are surveys of the neutral atomic hydrogen (using the famous 21-cm spectral line). #EBHIS #HI4PI

So good to see that our 21-cm HI surveys, #EBHIS and #HI4PI, continue to deliver!

Nice discovery by Gerrit Verschuur and Joan Schmelz

#introduction

I live in #Bonn and work in #DataScience and #MachineLearning Engineering. My projects in range from maintaining #Kubeflow installations in on-premises and cloud #Kubernetes clusters to developing #MLOps best practices for teams.

I mostly develop in #Python, #YAML, #Terraform, and am dabbling in #Rustlang.

I got my PhD in #Astronomy being a small part of the #EBHIS and #HI4PI team.

In recent years I’m having fun riding my #eMTB all across the #Eifel and #Ahrtal. #MTB

@Stef_Astro I've actually never seen a "Würzburg Riese" - awesome.

Processing HI data of the Milky Way is hard! It took our group 5 years or so to get the job done for #EBHIS. In the EBHIS data release paper (https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2016/01/aa27007-15/aa27007-15.html), we try to explain the necessary steps in some detail. However, I think with a somewhat better baseline fitting algorithm, your HI data might already look much better.

Hi all, I just moved over from scholar.social (and Twitter). I'm a professional radio astronomer, working almost full-time in spectrum management these days (protecting radio astronomy frequencies from cell-phones, Starlink etc.). I like to write software with #Python.

Hi all! I'm a radio astronomer. My main projects are #EBHIS and #HI4PI. I also work in spectrum management, trying to keep our frequencies free (from artificial radio waves by cell phones, TV, RADAR, etc.).
