Good Luck Sorting This Hat
Sorting the Sombrero galaxy into a galaxy classification is difficult to do, but new evidence suggests that like Harry Potter, the Sombrero galaxy may fit into more than one category.
Baryonification – Dark matter N-body simulations and the impact of gas-trophysics
The effects of gas are complicated and challenging to simulate. Today’s paper explores a way to account for gas in cosmological simulations without actually including it!
Missing the Fireworks in Massive Dusty Galaxies
Ever tried to see fireworks through the smoke? New results suggest we might be missing some of the action.
Connections on the Cosmic Web
Where a galaxy lies on the cosmic web can play a part in determining it’s mass and star formation rate.
Modeling Supernovae Feedback as a Galactic Fountain
Stellar feedback can drive a galactic fountain by pushing out gas that later falls back in.
Learning about galaxy evolution with naked red nuggets
A unique population of galaxies may hold the keys to discovering how star formation stops happening in older galaxies.
