AMON (Astro-particle Multi-messenger Observatories Network)

AMON (Astro-particle Multi-messenger Observatories Network) is an international collaboration that connects various observatories studying cosmic phenomena. It combines data about different types of signals—such as light, particles, and gravitational waves—to detect and analyze energetic events in the universe like black hole mergers or supernovae. By sharing real-time information across different instruments, AMON helps scientists better understand these events, pinpoint their locations, and learn about the most extreme and mysterious objects in space. This multi-messenger approach enhances our ability to study the universe in a comprehensive and coordinated way.
