Emmanuel works as a radio astronomer to understand compact astrophysical objects and the extreme physical environments that surround them. His research interests currently center on radio pulsars and fast radio bursts (FRBs); while pulsars are known to be rotating neutron stars, the origins of FRBs are largely unknown but are indicative of environments like those produced by neutron stars.
The Eastern Conference for the Society of Amateur Radio Astronomers (SARA) and Radio Jove is an opportunity for amateur radio astronomers to come together for hands-on training, sharing of knowledge, debate of ideas, fellowship, and of course continuous learning. Our mission is to create opportunities for educating those interested in pursuing amateur radio astronomy.
The 2025 SARA Western Conference will be held at the Pete V. Domenici Science Operations Center in Socorro, NM and the Very Large Array near Magdalena, New Mexico on March 14 to 16, 2025.
The 2024 SARA Eastern Conference and Global Radio Astronomy Symposium will be held at the Green Bank Observatory, West Virginia, Sunday through Wednesday, 4-7 August 2024. The conference will also be available as a fully interactive online event. With radio astronomy as its foundation, the Green Bank Observatory (GBO) is a world leader in advancing research, innovation, and education.
The 2024 SARA Western Conference will be held at Dallas, Texas at the University of Texas campus on Monday and Tuesday, 8 and 9 April, 2024. A total solar eclipse will be visible from the Dallas area on the afternoon of April 8, and observation of the eclipse will be a main event of the conference.
