A big milestone today! Domenik Ehlert holding his freshly printed PhD thesis! The defence is in 3 weeks and I couldn’t be prouder of the work that’s gone into this. Congratulations on reaching this stage! The finish line is in sight!

It was wonderful to host Teresa Bister, Damiano Fiorillo, Karri Koljonen, and Bing Theodore Zhang at NTNU to kick-off our Centre of Advanced Study Oslo Collaboration!

Researchers’ Night at NTNU last Friday! Our group brought a 3D-printed mini-array of Auger surface detectors and talked to high school students about cosmic rays and black holes.

During #ICRC2025 we had the immense fortune to be shown around the Jungfraujoch research station. We saw, among other things, the neutron monitor and the guestbook signed by Pierre Auger and his students in 1934-38.

A very nice popular summary of our recent work on whether ultra-high energy cosmic rays may be accelerated in AGN ultrafast outflows by @sbrandslet.bsky.social norwegianscitechnews.com/2025/05/unra...
Unravelling the origin of mysterious radiation
Cosmic radiation occasionally contains enormous amounts of energy, but we don’t know why or where this radiation comes from.
