The discovery of table salt and super-heated water in two massive protostellar disks hints at a new type of “hot-disk” chemistry.
Supermassive stars may be the seeds of supermassive black holes. But where and how do these seeds form?
What might be causing the accretion rates in newly formed stars to remain so high?
Amid all of the swirling chaos during star formation, the universe finds a way to order its diffuse gas into shining young stars. ALMA Science Verification observations give new insight.
The well-known constellation Taurus is home to many young stars, and the details of star formation are explained by observing far-infrared radiation from several of these objects with the Herschel space observatory.
