UR: Searching for Laser Signals in Optical Stellar Spectra
Using new observations from the UVCANDELS survey, a possible link between recent star formation, merger frequency, and the size-mass evolution of massive, quiescent galaxies is investigated.
UR: Quenching timescales of dwarf satellites around Milky Way-mass hosts
Today’s undergraduate research post features a student who uses computer simulations to the evolution of dwarf galaxies.
Investigation of Coma Morphology of Long and Short Period Comets
Today’s undergraduate research post features a student who observed long and short period comets to understand the differences in their formation.
UR #33: Investigating the dark matter in M82 using the mass-to-light ratio
Today’s undergraduate research post is all about a search for dark matter in the starburst galaxy M82!
UR: Mass segregation in star clusters: nature or nurture?
In today’s undergraduate research post, we see that massive stars are often found in the centers of stellar clusters. Are they born there or do they move there at a later stage?
UR: Constraining the Circumbinary Disk Tilt in the KH 15D system
In today’s undergraduate research post, the unusual brightness changes of the famous ‘Winking Star’ binary system is used to constrain properties of the disk that surrounds this intriguing system.
