Help us classify galaxies and discover the unexpected with Radio Galaxy Zoo EMU !!!

PIs: Vardoulaki & Tang

Welcome to Radio Galaxy Zoo EMU (RGZ EMU), the newest in a series of citizen science projects to study galaxies with strong radio emission. Since 2013, we have worked with over 12,000 citizen scientists to learn about these fascinating objects, and to take deep dives into some of the most interesting ones (e.g., a giantwide-angle-tailradio galaxy found unexpectedly in apoorcluster of galaxies). RGZ EMU uses images from the new Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU) survey, which started in December 2022 on the Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope array. Eventually, EMU will detect over 40 million objects, so there’s a lot of work to do! Our starting point is the EMU Pilot Survey (Norris et al. 2021), and we will import new EMU data as time goes on 😃
