Understanding Dwarf Galaxies with a Heart of Steel
Hydrodynamical simulations shed new light on the metallicity of stellar populations in dwarf galaxies.
How to Diagnose the Light from Early Galaxies
Understanding the physics of a certain emission line will allow astronomers to study galaxies that existed a long time ago far, far away.
How the Milky Way Got its Spiral Arms
The spiral arms of galaxies are among the most recognizable galactic features, yet we still know little about their precise formation mechanism. Today’s paper leverages new data from the Gaia mission to test some of the leading theories.
