Start of a New Era: The One of Cold Dark Matter
Over the years of debating dark matter, scientists have conjectured many different types and culprits. Read today’s bite to find out why Cold Dark Matter prevails.
Teaching an old dog new tricks: Applying color-magnitude diagrams to semi-resolved galaxies
Applying color-magnitude diagrams to distant, semi-resolved galaxies may break new ground in understanding stellar populations on a massive scale.
Hunting for Stellar Streams
A newly discovered stellar stream may be the long-searched for tidal debris from the Milky Way’s largest globular cluster.
Can we a-void the Hubble tension with local voids?
Cosmologists revisit an idea for addressing the Hubble tension: that a local void is messing with our measurements along the cosmic distance ladder.
Connecting galaxy properties to their star-formation histories
Star-forming galaxies form stars at different rates. Could this be the model that reveals the underlying physics?
Where Did All the Dark Matter Go?
The discovery of a second dark matter deficient galaxy by van Dokkum et al. has caused the debate on galaxies lacking dark matter to resurface.
