Taking Care with Self-Care
As studies have shown, self-care is crucial for a healthy and happy body and mind. Today we go over a collection of self-care habits and resources that can help us all stay sane in the hectic world of academia.
On the Insides of Giants: Heat Transfer in Hot-Start, Core-Accreting Gas Giants
Thick clouds shroud the interiors of gas giants, like Jupiter, in mystery. Today’s authors set out to blow some of that mystery away. Using equations and modeling, they explore processes of heat transfer within the interiors of hot-start, core-accreting gas giants.
Modeling Limitless Skies
For life as we know it, atmospheric composition plays a huge part in planetary habitability. Today we explore a theoretical framework for characterizing and predicting planetary atmospheres, and how that framework can help in the search for Earth-like life on planets beyond our own.
Checking up on Circumstellar CO
In today’s astrobite, we take a fresh new look at an old problem: modeling the envelopes of CO gas around evolved stars.
Links in the Evolution Chain of Post-Starburst Galaxies
There are nearly 10,000 galaxies in this image, with a staggering variety of shapes, colors, sizes, and ages. But buried beneath that variety, we can find patterns in how galaxies morph and evolve over time. Today’s astrobite explores one such set of links in the giant chains of galaxy evolution.
