UR: Using Gaussian Processes to Study Exoplanet Transits and Stellar Variability Simultaneously
In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, discover how Larissa Palethorpe finds a way to get more information out of transit light curves.
Video Did Not Kill the Radio Star
What if the northern lights danced around the poles of…stars? Today’s authors investigate strange radio emission from our smallest stellar neighbors.
What will happen to Jupiter when the Sun dies?
The Sun will become a white dwarf. Will any Solar System planets survive?
How was the universe reionized? Cosmic sunbursts provide hints
How does the radiation that caused reionization travel out of galaxies? Studying a strongly-lensed system called the Sunburst Arc could tell us more.
Peering through the lens of the Milky Way Supermassive Black Hole
One of the most important observations by the next generation of giant telescopes will be made by pointing towards the Supermassive Black Hole at the center of our galaxy.
UR: Using ALMA to Detect Millimeter Flaring Emission from Proxima Centauri
In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, discover how Anna Estes used ALMA to characterize Proxima Centauri’s flaring emissions at millimeter wavelengths!
