AAS Splinter Session 150: The Highest Angular Resolution Frontier
The NRAO and the ngVLA project will convene a Splinter Session titled "The Highest Angular Resolution Frontier" on 7 January 2026 at the 247th meeting of the American Astronomical Society, in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. This session will highlight recent science breakthroughs enabled with milli- and micro-arcsecond angular resolutions. It will also discuss future science possibilities that demand joint improvements in angular resolution and sensitivity.
Invited oral presentations will cover
- Neutrino-Emitting Blazars, Matthias Kadler, Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg
- Resolving Jets from Gamma-ray Bursts (TBC), Alexander van der Horst, George Washington University
- Peering into the Formation of New Worlds with the ngVLA, Luca Ricci, California State University
- Multimessenger Astronomy with the Celestial Reference Frame, Sarah Burke-Spolaor, West Virginia University
- ngVLA Status and Update, Eric Murphy, NRAO
To broaden information sharing, the presentations will eventually be posted and advertised world wide.
