Scientists are the Universe’s translators. Their responsibility is to ensure that anyone can access their translation. Today’s authors argue that astronomers have not been living up to this task. Despite being one of the oldest physical sciences, astronomy has remained stagnant in its reliance on visual communication.
The authors of today’s paper study the distribution of cold gas in a group of galaxies and use that to understand how AGNs are powered.
Today’s bite reels in some Jellyfish Galaxies as they swim through the Perseus Cluster!
Today’s authors discover a shockingly bright Fast Radio Burst at an unexpectedly high frequency, and consider what this might mean about so-called “cataclysmic” FRBs!
In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, Delina Levine compares radio emissions of gamma ray bursts with X-rays and optical observations.
One challenge of exoplanet astronomy is finding moons orbiting distant worlds. Today’s paper tests out an unusual new method of finding these exomoons!
