SUMMARY:Speaker: Vishal Gajjar (UC Berkeley)
DESCRIPTION:Title: Breakthrough Listen’s search for intelligent life in the Universe \n\n\nAbstract: The discovery of the ubiquity of habitable extrasolar planets\, combined with revolutionary advances in instrumentation and observational capabilities\, have ushered in a renaissance in the millennia-old quest to answer our most profound question about the Universe and our place within it – Are we alone? The Breakthrough Listen Initiative announced in July 2015 as a 10-year 100M USD program is the most comprehensive effort in history to quantify the distribution of advanced\, technologically capable life in the universe. In this talk\, I outline the status of the on-going observing campaign with our primary observing facilities\, as well as planned activities with these instruments over the next few years. I will also talk about collaborative facilities which will conduct searches for technosignatures in either primary observing mode or commensally. I will highlight some of the novel analysis techniques we are bringing to bear on multi-petabyte data sets\, including machine learning tools we are deploying to search for a broader range of technosignatures than was previously possible. https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.05519
