   "Combining two extreme imaging frontiers in the quest for supermassive 
binary black holes"

           utorak, 28. februar 2023. godine, u 18 sati, u ucionici 809.

Imaging has always been and remains to be at the forefront of astronomical 
research because it has two distinct frontiers.
One of the extreme ends consists of a fleet of large survey telescopes 
that scan large regions of the entire sky in order to compile inventories 
of objects that are ever more complete. On the opposite side is  a 
substantial population of  greater
resolution and higher quality imaging tools, which are capable of scanning 
individual objects with vision that is ever more sharp.

Understanding the nature of spacetime and gravity will be one of the 
primary challenges of fundamental research in the future decades.The 
entirety of the event that takes place in our universe occurs inside the 
context of spacetime, which stands as the arena. Particular attention will 
be paid to possible supermassive  binary black holes
(SMBBH) as a source of 'ripples' in space-time.
New large surveys such as the Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and 
Time (LSST) can produce a view of the deep universe with a high cadence 
over decade, making it possible to combine both extremes of
imaging frontiers.
We describe here a work that is now in progress to hybridise the LSST, and 
nearby future sharp vision instruments  quest for SMBBH.
This research is conducted by LSST SER-SAG Team.
