FIREstorms in early galaxies: Simulating the brief, blazing lives of giant clumps
What do a galaxy’s stellar clumps tell us about how it formed? Today’s guest author Michelle Park explores interesting properties of clumps from the FIRE simulations.
How Galaxy Mergers Can Bridge The Stellar Age Gap in Spiral Arms
Can galaxy interactions help young and old stars in spiral arms get to know each other? These authors’ simulations may have an answer!
