The South Pole Telescope: stars, AGN, and the CMB, oh my!
Ever wondered what science gets done at the South Pole? It turns out that many astrophysics and cosmology experiments end up there!

Mapping the structure of dense gas in the Milky Way is a huge undertaking… which is why we have huge surveys!
Constraining physical parameters in a cosmological survey is often computationally expensive, especially when considering more than one survey at a time. The authors of this paper offer a simple method to reconstruct parameter distributions in a fraction of the time needed for most high-performance computers.
Astronomers have been finding planets around M dwarf stars for a while. Can we go even cooler and find planets around the diverse L and T spectral group?
How would the LSST have to survey the sky in order to study dark energy?
The Milky Way’s nearest neighbor, the Andromeda galaxy, is a promising target for deep multi-wavelength observations. Come listen to Prof. Julianne Dalcanton talk about her work catching up with the neighbor at #AAS233!
