A Beginners Guide to Predicting Supernovae

A Beginners Guide to Predicting Supernovae

by Roel Lefever | Aug 27, 2022 | Daily Paper Summaries

If the light from supernovae travels at, unsurprisingly, the speed of light (which really is the upper limit here), how can we predict them? Time travel, is that you? Spoiler alert: it isn’t. It’s neutrinos.

Who Keeps Stirring the Interstellar Pot?

Who Keeps Stirring the Interstellar Pot?

by H Perry Hatchfield | Aug 8, 2022 | Daily Paper Summaries

Something is stirring up chaos on galactic scales. The authors of today’s papers investigate just what’s needed to recreate the turbulence seen in the interstellar medium.

Adding Gal-ax-ies, It’s Easy as One-Two-Three

by Sahil Hegde | Aug 1, 2022 | Daily Paper Summaries

Adding galaxies to dark matter simulations might be easier than you thought – today’s authors present a new method to generate synthetic data from relatively low-resolution DM simulations!

Finding young exoplanets with machine learning

Finding young exoplanets with machine learning

by Guest | Jul 30, 2022 | Course Assignments, Daily Paper Summaries

Astronomers have a challenging task ahead of them — to find young exoplanets in protoplanetary disks. Machine Learning could potentially come to the rescue.

Defining Gravity: Can Wide Binaries be a Definitive Test of Modified Newtonian Gravity Theories?

Defining Gravity: Can Wide Binaries be a Definitive Test of Modified Newtonian Gravity Theories?

by Aldo Panfichi | Jul 23, 2022 | Daily Paper Summaries

Today’s paper posits that precise observations of wide binaries can be used, in conjunction with simulations, to test the validity of modified gravity theories!

The Standard Model Fails to Pass the Bar

The Standard Model Fails to Pass the Bar

by Guest | Jun 4, 2022 | Daily Paper Summaries

The presence of dark matter particles in barred spiral galaxies should slow down their galactic bars. However, this is not what we observe. Are galactic bars telling us to reconsider the foundations of the standard model?
