A Proposal for Enhancing Technosignature Search toward the Galactic Center

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We discuss the possibility of enhancing intelligent life searches toward the Galactic center. From the clockwork orbital motions of stars around the Sgr A* black hole, we can determine the distance to the Galactic center at an exceptional accuracy ...

A Search for Technosignatures Around 11,680 Stars with the Green Bank Telescope at 1.15–1.73 GHz

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We conducted a search for narrowband radio signals over four observing sessions in 2020–2023 with the L -band receiver (1.15–1.73 GHz) of the 100 m diameter Green Bank Telescope.

Searching for extraterrestrial intelligence across a century

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, is an old idea but a new science. Both inspirational and controversial, the scientific search for non-human artificial signals or communications, known as technosignatures, was pioneered by a few visionary scientists and through amazing technological advances of recent years is

Multibeam SETI Observations Toward Nearby M Dwarfs with FAST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) targeted searches aim to observe specific areas and objects to find possible technosignatures. Many SETI researches have focused on nearby stars and their planets in recent years.

Microlensing Signatures of Dyson Sphere–like Structures around Primordial Black Holes as Technosignatures of Extraterrestrial Advanced Civilizations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the microlensing detectability of extraterrestrial technosignatures originating from Dyson sphere-like structures, such as Dyson swarms surrounding primordial black holes.

CARGOISM AND SCIENTIFIC JUSTIFICATION IN THE SEARCH FOR EXTRATERRESTRIAL INTELLIGENCE

open access: yesZygon, 2019
This article compares justifications of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) presented by scientists with ideational constructs associated with cargo cults in Melanesia. In focusing on similarities between cargoism and SETI, I argue that,

Detecting Extraterrestrial Civilizations that Employ an Earth-level Deep Space Network

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
A major aspect of the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) involves searching for electromagnetic transmissions from extraterrestrial sources, often using our own transmissions as a guide.
