Carnivalgoing galaxies and a billion dollar guessing game
An astronomer and a galaxy walk into a carnival stand… check out today’s bite to see how this one ends!
Continued analysis on the continuous search for continuous waves (continued)
Post-detection of a gravitational wave background, pulsar timing arrays could detect individual sources of gravitational waves, called Continuous Waves. Let’s find out what properties we expect them to have!
A cosmic game of LEGO
In today’s paper, learn how astronomers can identify merging galaxies and investigate the importance of these collisions over cosmic time.
UR: A Getting Started Guide for JWST NIRSpec IFU Data Reduction
In today’s addition to our Undergrad Research series, a collaboration of students presents their guide to reducing JWST NIRSpec IFU data.
Can we identify the host galaxies of LISA sources?
The upcoming LISA mission promises to detect many gravitational wave events, but can it attribute any of them to a host galaxy? Let’s find out!
Tracing Star Fuel in the Universe’s Smallest Galaxies
It’s really hard to see molecular hydrogen (the fuel that makes stars) directly, so astronomers have to use other spectral lines to guess how much is there. In today’s paper, the authors discuss how to do that in the smallest galaxies in the universe!
