Mid- and far-infrared observations of the environment around embedded protostars reveal a plethora of high excitation molecular and atomic emission lines. In this paper recently accepted for publication in Astronomy […]

Star formation in the era of Herschel and ALMA: paving the way to JWST The birth of Sun-like stars is a complex process where several physical processes are involved but

I am excited to give an invited talk on the Antikythera mechanism at the Vienna Amateur Astronomers club (Wiener Arbeitsgemeinschaft for Astronomie). The topic of the presentation combines in a unique

Ancient civilization is mainly related to and studied through arts and literature; technology is however an equally important aspect reflected in the degree of abstraction and complexity of antique devices.

Our open access review on the evolution and chemistry of protoplanetary disks is online at the site of Springer Link. \”The Gas Disk: Evolution and Chemistry\” has been the result of collective effort

I am proud to co-organize with excellent colleagues for the second consecutive year a symposium on astrophysical jets and outflows within the framework of the European Week of Astronomy and

A new lecture focusing in the formation and role of solids in diverse astrophysical environments will be available in the fall of 2016. The wide spectrum of topics that will

The star-formation feedback onto the parent cloud is conventionally examined through the study of molecular outflows. Little is however known on the effect that atomic ejecta, tracing fast shocks, can have on

Our project JetPro* has been awarded full funding from the Austrian Research Promotion Agency (FFG) in the framework of the 12th Austrian Space Applications Programme (ASAP). In the following years we

I am happy to co-organize a 3-day symposium in the framework of the European Week of Astronomy and Space Science that this year will be held in Athens, Greece. The
