Zooniverseの市民科学プロジェクトKilonova Seekersの日本語版「恋する超新星」を翻訳し立ち上げました！ @GOTO_Network というサーベイがほぼリアルタイムで撮影した画像から新天体を探すプロジェクトで、昨年夏から超新星候補を50個近く報告し11個が分光確認されてます。 zooniverse.org/projects/tkil…

🔔📜 IceCube paper submitted to EPJ+! We report on a successful first attempt at engaging the public in research. Over the course of six months, 1,800 @the_zooniverse users aided in 128,000 classifications of IceCube neutrino events. 🤯 Story ➡️ icecube.wisc.edu/news/resear…
Volunteer users first watched a short video on the left. Then, based on the shape and timing of the colored bubbles, they were asked to pick the corresponding category from among the five options on the right.
