Cool, Relaxed, but Way Out of Its Lane: The Most Distant Cooling-Flow Galaxy Cluster Yet Observed
Galaxy clusters like to relax, but it takes most of them a long time to get there. In today’s paper, the authors have found an exception to that rule!
A new light in the cosmic Dark Age
Today’s paper investigates one of the galaxies helping to drive the process of reionization.
Will it Merge? Investigating How Gas Disks Can Determine the Future of a Binary Black Hole System
Will it merge? That is the question. Today’s paper looks at if the gas disk around a black hole binary will cause the binary to eventually coalesce
Counting supermassive black hole binaries with customers at a coffee shop
A short guide on how estimate the number of supermassive black hole binary mergers by measuring how loud it is at your local cafe
Smashing stellar nurseries together to see if they survive
Galaxy mergers are violent places, which makes simulating their effects on fragile molecular clouds very difficult. The authors of today’s paper manage to do it anyway!
Mass + metals + making history = constraining the mass-metallicity relation with JWST
Investigating the physical properties of galaxies is key to our understanding of galaxy formation and evolution. With the power of the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers are now able to investigate properties of huge numbers of galaxies in the early Universe.
