Astrophysical Technosignatures

open access: yes, 2020
Our conventional SETI endeavors have focused on detecting artificial signs with communication techniques that are in everyday use in our present state of technical culture. These include the use of electromagnetic waves, i.e. radio, laser, and visible light communication techniques.

Cosmic Illuminating Gift: A One-Way Information Box for Extraterrestrial Intelligences

open access: yesUniverse
We introduce the concept of a one-way, broadband information package, the Cosmic Illuminating Gift, intended to provide distant intelligences with fundamental empirical data about the Universe. Unlike previous messaging to extraterrestrial intelligences (

Deciding Technosignature Search Strategies: Multi-Criteria Fuzzy Logic to Find Extraterrestrial Intelligence

open access: yesAerospace
This study presents the implementation of Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) methodologies, particularly the fuzzy technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), in prioritizing technosignatures (TSs) for the search for ...

Time Markers for SETI in Binary Systems: History and Prospects

open access: yesAstronomy
Contemporary surveys in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) typically make one-off “spot scans” across the sky to search planetary systems for narrow-band radio signals that would indicate the presence of intelligent life.

Multibeam Blind Search of Targeted SETI Observations toward 33 Exoplanet Systems with FAST

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) is to search for technosignatures associated with extraterrestrial life, such as engineered radio signals.

Climate Emergency and Different Ways to Fail? The Fermi Paradox, the Simulation Hypothesis, Agency and Hope

open access: yesJournal for the Theory of Social Behaviour, Volume 55, Issue 4, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Humanity seems stuck on different ways to fail to meet the challenge posed by a declared climate emergency and manifest problems of ecological breakdown. Rather than reprise these failures, we use the Fermi Paradox and simulation hypothesis to make a simple point about agency. The argument unfolds in two sections.

Signal Synchronization Strategies and Time Domain SETI with Gaia DR3

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Spatiotemporal techniques for signal coordination with actively transmitting extraterrestrial civilizations, without the need for prior communication, can constrain technosignature searches to a significantly smaller coordinate space.

What is the noosphere? Planetary superorganism, major evolutionary transition and emergence

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, Volume 41, Issue 4, Page 614-622, July/August 2024.
Abstract The noosphere remains an underappreciated and understudied idea despite that it provides unique hope towards a positive and meaningful global integration. A core reason for this lack of attention is that its very definition is often unclear both in the West with Teilhard de Chardin and in the East with Vernadsky.

Specular Reflections from Artificial Surfaces as Technosignature

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2023
Direct imaging of exoplanets will allow for observation of a planet in reflected light. Such a scenario may eventually allow for the possibility to scan a planetary surface for the presence of artificial structures made by alien civilizations. Detectability of planetary-scale structures, called megastructures, has been previously explored. In this work,
