Excellent Pulsar Research

Πριν ένα χρόνο περίπου είχα γράψει για την δουλειά του Γιάννη Αντωνιάδη πάνω στο διπλό σύστημα του PSR J0348+0432 με έναν Λευκό Νάνο χαμηλής μάζας. Η δουλειά αυτή ήταν μέρος της διδακτορικής του εργασίας που εκπόνησε στο ινστιτούτο Max Planck στη Βόννη.

Σε λίγες μέρες, ο Γιάννης θα βραβευθεί για τη διδακτορική του εργασία:

"Foundation for Physics and Astronomy in Bonn" presents award for doctoral thesis of John Antoniadis

On Friday, 16 May 2014, the Foundation for Physics and Astronomy in Bonn will present its award to John Antoniadis who completed his research work related to his doctoral thesis within the International Max Planck Research School (IMPRS) for Astronomy and Astrophysics at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy. The presentation starts at 4 pm at the Physical Institute’s seminar room I, Nussallee 12. All those who are interested are warmly invited to participate.

The Foundation for Physics and Astronomy in Bonn presents its 2014 award to John (Ioannis) Antoniadis for his research work “Multi-wavelength studies of pulsars and their companions”. He receives the award for his doctoral thesis that focuses on optical observations of so called white dwarfs, which accompany these pulsars.

The doctoral award will be presented on 16 May 2014 at the Physical Institute’s seminar room I. Prof. Luciano Rezzolla of the Goethe University Frankfurt will give a guest lecture on the topic "Exploring extreme gravity with neutrons stars".

Μπράβο Γιάννη. Τα θερμά μου συγχαρητήρια.
