Medtem, ko študentke in študenti z Univerze v Washingtonu nadaljujejo svoj enomesečni študijski program »Astronomija v Evropi: praktične vaje s teleskopi, opazovanji in umetno inteligenco v astronomiji« na Observatoriju Višnjan na Hrvaškem, še nekaj vtisov z njihovega bivanja v Sloveniji v organizaciji Fakulteta za naravoslovje Akademija umetnosti Univerza v Novi Gorici.

While students from the University of Washington continue their month-long study program "Astronomy Europe: Hands-On with Telescopes, Observing, and Artificial Intelligence in Astronomy" at the Višnjan Observatory in Croatia, here are a few more impressions from their stay in Slovenia, organised by the School of Science at the University of Nova Gorica.

UI spreminja izobraževalni proces. Lahko je učinkovita pomoč pri študiju, neke vrste osebni UI učitelj, lahko pa učeče potegne v »možgansko lenobo«, saj brez truda pridejo do rešitve, ne pa tudi do razumevanja, znanja in veščin.
Nedavna raziskava, opravljena v kitajskih srednjih šolah, je, na primer, pokazala, da je uporaba UI zvišala ocene domačih nalog za 18 odstotkov in skrajšala čas za njihovo reševanje za 30 odstotkov, kar se sliši pozitivno. A v vsega šestih mesecih uporabe UI pri domačih nalogah so se ocene na mesečnih izpitih – ki merijo pridobljeno znanje – znižale za 20 odstotkov.

Art meets astronomy at the 5th Regional LSST Workshop!

At IFPU in Miramare, Trieste, participants swapped laptops for brushes in an Art & Science session led by SMASH postdoc Nikki Arendse, painting scientific images with watercolors.

Black holes and spiral galaxies, the Miramare castle under a starry sky, telescope domes on a mountaintop, AI in astronomy. See for yourself!

Thanks to Nikki for organising, and to everyone who joined in.

🇬🇧 A photo from Heidelberg: our student Sanja presenting her poster at the 9th Heidelberg International Symposium on High-Energy Gamma-Ray Astronomy (γ-2026), taking place this week at the Neue Universität. Sanja has just completed her BSc and will soon start her MSc studies with us, so this is her first international conference. A great start!

https://plan.events.mpg.de/event/543/overview

🇸🇮 Fotografija iz Heidelberga: naša študentka Sanja predstavlja svoj poster na 9. heidelberškem mednarodnem simpoziju o visokoenergijski astronomiji žarkov gama (γ-2026), ki ta teden poteka na Neue Universität. Sanja je pravkar zaključila dodiplomski študij in bo kmalu začela magistrski študij pri nas, tako da je to njena prva mednarodna konferenca. Odličen začetek!

🇬🇧 Members of our Centre for Astrophysics and Cosmology took part in the 5th LSST Regional Meeting, with many of them presenting their work. Among them were our SMASH fellows and PhD students working on LSST and machine learning.

The timing could hardly be better: LSST has just started its ten-year survey of the southern sky. In his talk, Željko Ivezić, Director of Rubin Observatory, shared that the site was hit by a storm of a scale not seen in 70 years. The good news is that operations are expected to be back online within a month.

Congratulations to everyone who presented!

🇸🇮 Člani našega Centra za astrofiziko in kozmologijo so se udeležili 5. regionalnega srečanja LSST, kjer so mnogi predstavili svoje delo. Med njimi so bili tudi naši štipendisti programa SMASH in doktorski študenti, ki delajo na LSST in strojnem učenju.

Čas ne bi mogel biti boljši: LSST je pravkar začel svoj desetletni pregled južnega neba. Željko Ivezić, direktor observatorija Rubin, je v svojem predavanju povedal, da je lokacijo prizadelo neurje, kakršnega ni bilo že 70 let. Dobra novica je, da naj bi observatorij spet začel delovati v enem mesecu.

Čestitke vsem, ki so predstavljali!

Včeraj je bil še en intenziven dan programa enomesečnega študijskega programa v tujini pod naslovom »Astronomija v Evropi: praktične vaje s teleskopi, opazovanji in umetno inteligenco v astronomiji«, ki se ga udeležujejo študenti in študentke z Univerze v Washingtonu in Fakulteta za naravoslovje Univerze v Novi Gorici.

Zgodaj zjutraj so opazovali eksoplanet z daljinsko vodenim teleskopom GoChile. Pri tem so jim pomagali asistenti in asistentke Fakultete za naravoslovje UNG. Dopoldan so analizirali pridobljene podatke, popoldan pa so se pripravljali na naslednja opazovanja, v noči s torka na sredo, ki so jih izvedli s teleskopom GoChile v Čilu in teleskopom TTT na Tenerifih.

A to še ni vse! Zvečer so se pomerili v astronomskem kvizu. Zmagovalna ekipa je nagrado uporabila kar na trgu pred palačo Paternolli v Gorici, kjer so študenti in študentke nastanjeni ta teden.

Yesterday was another intensive day of the one-month study-abroad program titled "Astronomy Europe: Hands-on with Telescopes, Observing, and Artificial Intelligence in Astronomy," attended by students from the University of Washington and the School of Science of the University of Nova Gorica.

Early in the morning, they observed an exoplanet using the remotely operated GoChile telescope, assisted by teaching assistants from the UNG School of Science. In the morning, they analyzed the data they had obtained, and in the afternoon they prepared for the next observations, which took place during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday using the GoChile telescope in Chile and the TTT telescope in Tenerife.

But that's not all! In the evening they competed in an astronomy quiz. The winning team used their prize right on the square in front of the Paternolli Palace in Gorizia, where the students are staying this week.

Nova študentska rezidenca Univerze v Novi Gorici je včeraj sprejela prve goste – študentke in študente Univerze v Washingtonu / University of Washington, ki bodo pri nas preživeli teden dni.

Svoj prvi dan so začeli s predstavitvijo Evropske prestolnice kulture 2025, nadaljevali s predavanji v večnamenski galeriji v najvišjem nadstropju rezidence ter s skupnim kosilom v pritličju.

Ob prihodu so jih pričakale tudi darilne vrečke z gradivi in spominki, ki sta jih pripravila in Vipavska dolina - Vipava Valley in European Capital of Culture 2025 Nova Gorica - Gorizia ter jim tako približala somestje Nove Gorice in Gorice. Hvala! 💚

Popoldne so se odpravili še v EPICenter - Interpretacijski center EPIC, kjer je prof. dr. Mario Jurić z Univerze v Washingtonu na javnem predavanju predstavil desetletje sprememb paradigem v astronomiji. 🔭

Palača Paternolli je tako prvič zaživela prav tako, kot smo si zamislili – kot prostor bivanja, študija, srečevanja in mednarodnega povezovanja.

The University of Nova Gorica’s new student residence welcomed its first guests yesterday – students from the University of Washington, who will be staying with us for one week.

Their first day began with a presentation of the European Capital of Culture 2025, followed by lectures in the multipurpose gallery on the top floor and lunch in the residence’s shared spaces.

Upon arrival, they also received welcome bags with gifts and information about the twin cities of Nova Gorica and Gorizia, prepared by European Capital of Culture 2025 Nova Gorica - Gorizia and Vipavska dolina - Vipava Valley. Thank you! 💚

In the afternoon, they visited EPICenter - Interpretacijski center EPIC, where Prof. Mario Jurić from the University of Washington gave a public lecture on a decade of paradigm shifts in astronomy.

Paternolli Palace has begun to live exactly as envisioned – as a place for living, learning, meeting and building international connections.
