Who is responsible for the death of star formation in galaxies?
Who is responsible for the death of star formation in galaxies?
Today’s paper investigates the star-forming histories of early galaxies and finds that galaxies form their stars in bursts, interspersed with lulls.
In this Astrobite, we see if ancient aged galaxies spell trouble for cosmology!
Come and take a look at the earliest known galactic-scale outflow we’ve ever observed!
Today’s bite explores the star formation history of galaxies in the early universe using chemical signals of stellar deaths.
Stellar streams are exciting probes of galaxy evolution, and today’s authors are confident we’ll soon be able to find even more!
