Edge-on disks: Nothing dust it better.
Today’s astrobite explores edge-on disks that can provide insight into how dust is transported in protoplanetary disks.
Opening the Envelope on Protostars
Protostars aren’t quite stars yet, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t important in stellar evolution. Today’s paper looks at the magnetic field across the different regions in a protostar.
Meet the AAS Keynote Speakers: Prof. Paola Caselli
Where did we come from? Where did we go? Astrochemistry can help answer the first question, at least… Find out more at Prof. Paola Caselli’s talk at #AAS236!
A Galactic Sirocco
High-resolution simulations yield insights into the dust content of galactic winds
Polarime-trying to Map Magnetic Fields in the Orion Nebula
Molecular clouds act as stellar nurseries, creating environments for stars to form. However, according to polarimetry measurements of OMC-1’s magnetic field, there’s an explosion going on that would disrupt any lullaby.
Missing the Fireworks in Massive Dusty Galaxies
Ever tried to see fireworks through the smoke? New results suggest we might be missing some of the action.
