In this article the authors simulate the collapse of a magnetized, turbulent molecular cloud core to see if rotationally supported discs can form around central protostars.
When new evidence disagrees with our previous understanding, we must reinterpret everything.
How do you measure a black hole’s rotation? Jets might be the answer!
Young massive stars have a variety of different rotation rates, but what sets these initial speeds? In this paper, the authors investigate whether magnetic fields could be the answer.
Estimating galaxy cluster masses is difficult, but it might be getting more precise thanks to the Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect.
We think many galaxies we see today had mergers and interactions in their past, but how can we know for sure? Bonfini et al. look to evidence from a subtle pattern in the distribution of globular clusters in NGC 4261.
