📃Scientific paper: Cluster analysis of the Roma-BZCAT blazars Abstract: Based on the collected multiwavelength data, namely in the radio (NVSS, FIRST, RATAN-600), IR (WISE), optical (Pan-STARRS), UV (GALEX), and X-ray (ROSAT, Swift-XRT) ranges, we have performed a cluster analysis for the blazars of the Roma-BZCAT catalog. Using two machine learning methods, namely a combination of PCA with k-means clustering and Kohonen's self-organizing maps, we have constructed an independent classification of the blazars (five classes) and compared the classes with the known Roma-BZCAT classification (FSRQs, BL Lacs, galaxy-dominated BL Lacs, and blazars of an uncertain type) as well as with the high synchrotron peaked blazars (HSP) from the 3HSP catalog and blazars from the TeVCat catalog. The obtained groups demonstrate concordance with the BL Lac/FSRQ classification along with a continuous character of the change in the properties. The group of HSP blazars stands out against the overall distribution. We examine the characteristics of the five groups and demonstrate distinctions in their spectral energy distribution shapes. The effectiveness of the clustering technique for objective analysis of multiparametric arrays of experimental data is demonstrated. ;Comment: Accepted for publication in Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics Continued on ES/IODE ➡️ https://etcse.fr/quBxl ------- If you find this interesting, feel free to follow, comment and share.

Second thesis finished! This one is for my second major in the Department of Astronomy at the University of Virginia. In it, I present a new program I wrote in Python that interfaces with star formation simulations to generate a scatterplot of stars' brightness versus their color, known in astronomy as a color-magnitude diagram. I also describe statistical methods for measuring how the rate of star formation affects the age spread of a stellar population, and how age spread's effects materialize in a color-magnitude diagram.

🌌 Exploring the Cosmos, One Theory at a Time 🌌 In my free time, I’ve started teaching physics to underprivileged students, diving into the wonders of our universe. Today, we tackled the concept of gravity using an imaginative analogy—a tesseract sheet. 🌠 I explained gravity as the result of a massive object creating a depression or curve in the fabric of spacetime, similar to a heavy ball placed on a stretched sheet. But we didn't stop there! We ventured into the fascinating realm of wormholes—bridges that could theoretically connect two distant points in spacetime. Here's the idea: Imagine spacetime as a tesseract-like sheet. On one side, a black hole acts as a force pulling everything inward, creating a deep well in the sheet. On the opposite side, there’s a white hole—a theoretical entity that exerts a pushing force outward. This push-pull dynamic could potentially balance the sheet, causing a bend so extreme that it forms a tunnel connecting the two sides. This tunnel is what we call a wormhole. These discussions always ignite excitement—thinking about how black holes, white holes, and spacetime might interconnect leads to questions about time travel, alternate dimensions, and the very nature of our reality. 🌀 Although I’m a CSE undergrad, my curiosity knows no bounds. I love astrophysics, quantum theories, and exploring the mysteries of time travel. 🚀 I believe the universe is a giant puzzle, and every discussion with like-minded individuals helps solve a piece of it. ✨ Are you as fascinated by these cosmic curiosities as I am? Let’s connect, discuss, and explore the infinite possibilities of our universe together! 🌠 #Astrophysics #QuantumTheory #TimeTravel #Education #Wormholes #BlackHoles #ScienceForAll

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐝𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐒𝐄𝐓𝐈, 𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐔 𝐌𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐢 𝐋𝐢𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬. After American Public University, I worked at Texas State University for over 8 years (2014-2022) and love that the university sponsored this presentation and love the interdisciplinarity of Trembley's talk here about the vast potential of combining Astronomy, Physics and Mathematics and Engineering. The articles notes: "Tremblay discussed the connections between mathematics, physics and astronomy in modern science. She said her job would not be possible without math. She gave a bit of history to show the intertwined relationship between astronomy and mathematics. She said Henrietta Swan Leavitt discovered the correlation between Period and Luminosity, which is an astronomical relationship that allows us to measure distances. Without that discovery, Edwin Hubble would not have discovered that galaxies existed. “Without this mathematics, that revelation would have never happened,” Tremblay said. “We really needed mathematics in order to do astronomy and to build it.” She said to get a more expansive image of the sky, one can build a very large telescope or utilize arrays of them. “When we do that we use mathematics to combine these, [which] simulates a single antenna,” Tremblay said. “ This is amazing and AI and the potential for AI working this way currently is also exponential in being able to creatively combine disparate knowledge domains this way. With human creativity and intuition this also becomes a recipe for vast discovery and invention and possibility When I worked at the University of Miami Libraries, (2003-2006) starting out as Webmaster (a title then)/Web Services Manager, our desktop technician/network manager, Gary, for our learning commons (about 250 computers networked on the main floor of the library) unbeknownst to anyone, connected all of the networked PC's to SETI so that from Midnight to 6:00 am Eastern, the closed main library computer commons, became it's amazing superhero alter ego, a SETI supercomputer processing in parallel massive SETI data for signs of extraterrestrial life from the radio telescopes. It becase listed as the 5th largest processor of SETI data on the planet. When University IT and the larger University administration found out, Gary was disciplined and we had to stop all 'SETI activity as we had massive data draws uploading and downloading and processing to and from SETI after the library closed at night and until it opened in the morning. Safe to say, Gary was admonished for his 'inappropriate', 'unsanctioned' behavior and actions but we all thought it was an amazing hacker moment for the department and I still remember it to this day! 😊 #SETI, #AI, #Interdisciplinarity, #Astronomy, #Physics, #Mathematics, #Creativity
https://buff.ly/4df9uAL The quest to determine whether or not humans are the only intelligent life forms in the universe is ongoing. Though there has been no definitive proof as of yet, experts are still searching. Chenoa Tremblay, a project scientist at the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute, delivered the keynote address during the Math in Space and the Unbreakable Bonds of STEM event hosted at Texas State in April. “Are we alone in the universe, is a question that I've been exploring through parts of my career over the last few years, and it's a question that human races supposedly have had for centuries,” Tremblay said. “One of the things about astrophysics and observational astronomy is that we are in a unique position in which to try to seek an answer to this question, and that's something that I've been working on. My challenge is to try to understand and decide if there is a prevalence of intelligent beings somewhere within the universe, and that's a significant challenge that requires astronomy, physics, mathematics, engineering, computer engineering and a number of other skills.” Tremblay discussed the connections between mathematics, physics and astronomy in modern science. She said her job would not be possible without math. She gave a bit of history to show the intertwined relationship between astronomy and mathematics. She said Henrietta Swan Leavitt discovered the correlation between Period and Luminosity, which is an astronomical relationship that allows us to measure distances. Without that discovery, Edwin Hubble would not have discovered that galaxies existed. “Without this mathematics, that revelation would have never happened,” Tremblay said. “We really needed mathematics in order to do astronomy and to build it.”
