    • Jets from X-ray Binaries to Active Galactic Nuclei 

      Körding, Elmar (2004)
      It is generally believed that active galactic nuclei (AGN) and black hole X-ray binaries (XRBs) have a similar central engine and that they could be described with a unified model. However, up to now such a model has not ...

    • Measuring Radio Emission from Cosmic Ray Air Showers with a Digital Radio Telescope 

      Horneffer, Andreas (2006)
      The earth is continously bombarded by highly energetic particles, the cosmic radiation. Even 90 years after their discovery the origin and acceleration of the highest energy particles is still unknown. Air showers from ...

    • Proper Motions in the Local Group 

      Brunthaler, Andreas (2004)
      In this thesis, the proper motions of two Local Group galaxies, namely M33 and IC10. The proper motions were measured by phase-referencing Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations of water vapour masers in the ...

    • Radio Emission from Cosmic Ray Air Showers 

      Huege, Tim (2005)
      Charged particles with energies ranging from a few times 10<sup>6</sup> eV up to ≥ 10<sup>20</sup> eV continuously impinge on the earth as so-called “cosmic rays”. Their study constitutes an important field of research in ...
