Horse(head)s in the Galactic Ecosystem
All galaxies are a complex ecosystem of interactions between hydrogen gas and stars. In today’s paper, the authors look at the Horsehead Nebula to narrow down the details of those interactions.
How to build an infrared luminosity function (at high redshifts)
Today’s authors take a stab at building the first high-redshift infrared galaxy luminosity function!
Movement in the Dust: Detecting Planetary Candidates via Disk Kinematics?
In today’s paper, the authors analyze millimeter and submillimeter ALMA observations of a protoplanetary disk, and find kinematic signs of candidate companions within!

A story about a haunted protoplanetary disk…
Happy spooky season, folks! This is a story about a haunted protoplanetary disk…
Young, cool, and on edge — an unstable protoplanetary disk
Is it possible to detect gravitational instability in a protoplanetary disk that is viewed edge-on? Today’s authors investigate the young disk around L1527 IRS.
