Guide to Gravitational Waves
From PTAs to ground-based gravitational wave interferometers, many exciting discoveries have been made in the field of gravitational wave astronomy. Today we have an overview of it for you in this guide!
Sednoids: Echoes of a Rogue Planet in the Early Solar System?
Ancient rogue planet could explain why sednoids in our Solar System follow such unusual, distant orbits.
Ripples in Time: The Transient Nature of Mysterious M Stars
Today’s authors, kick back, relax, and try to understand how some mysterious M dwarfs change over time.
Tilted Tatooines can serve as a source of strange, solo planets
Free-floating planets are hard to explain. Can the messy evolution of tilted planetary systems around binary stars help?
How can queering research methods improve physics education?
Queering research methods means breaking apart a problem to look at it from a completely new angle, today’s paper asks how we can use this to make physics education better for minoritised students.
Galactic Jets in Motion: Unveiling the Dance of Cosmic Ghosts
Plasma jets, emerging from a galaxy’s central black hole, sometimes bend in the same direction, forming head-tail structures. A recent study investigated two such galaxies found in unexpectedly close proximity, resembling a peculiar ‘dancing ghost’-like structure in the sky.
