Meet the AAS Keynote Speakers: Dr. Jo Dunkley
Hear from Jo Dunkley about the future of CMB observations as well as her journey into Academia at #AAS236.
Discovering the building blocks of nuclear star clusters
Today’s paper combines new observational data from Gaia with 20 years of multi-wavelength data of the compact dwarf galaxy NGC 5253, reveal a triplet system of star clusters in the centre.
Is there still a gender gap in research?
Today’s beyond post looks at a study into advances in closing the gender gap in academia.
How do bound star clusters form?
Today’s paper tests five different models of star cluster formation to find out how gravitationally-bound star clusters form in our Universe.
Elusive black holes: Have we found the ‘middle sibling’?
Today’s paper presents an intermediate mass black hole (IMBH) hiding within a dense star cluster. X-ray and optical observations over 15 years allow the authors to explore the different stages of this IMBH feasting on an unlucky star.
