Gobbling up Gas Giants
Could the consumption of a massive planet be responsible for the timing of this star’s flares? These authors investigate!
Trying to Crack the Cold Case of Core Collapse Neutrinos
The first (and last) time we observed neutrinos from a supernova was 40 years ago. Are we ready to understand what the next supernova neutrino will tell us?
Making Sense of Convoluted Images
Sometimes images need a little extra cleanup so we can see all the neat features there are to see. These authors deconvolve JWST observations of AGN to reveal outflows.
Finger on the Pulse of Magnetic Fields on delta Scuti and gamma Dor Variables
The oscillation modes of stars can tell us about their interior structure. However, strong magnetic fields can damp out these modes and make them undetectable. These authors look at two types of stars with oscillations to see what their magnetic fields are like.
Grad Student Unions 101
Unions are becoming a more prevalent feature of grad schools to consider when applying to grad school. This bite reviews some of the details to consider when choosing a school with (or without) a union.
