A Glimpse into Santa’s Workshop: Galaxy Edition
The author’s of today’s paper have gotten a glimpse at the building blocks of a massive galaxy!
Six tiny galaxies discovered right on our doorstep
Some of the smallest galaxies we know of live right next door to the Milky Way — but we’ve only just found them!
New insights into the puzzle of NGC 1068
Today’s authors delve into the AGN-starburst composite galaxy NGC 1068, and discuss a model for its multi-messenger emission.
UR: Effects of AGN activity on neutral gas outflows
In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, Matt Taylor explores the impact of AGN-driven neutral gas outflows.
Highly excited and concentrated: an academic stereotype or the gas in a galaxy?
Much like some astronomers, this distant galaxy keeps the lights on by maintaining high excitement and a central concentration (of hot gas)
Three roads diverge in a galaxy’s future, and the chosen one is almost entirely random!
Today’s paper uses simulations to understand how the Milky Way’s stellar halo formed, and also asks: what determines the evolutionary pathway taken by a galaxy over cosmic time?
