A Sip of Reionisation to Quench the Smallest Dwarf Galaxies
Did local Ultra-Faint Dwarf Galaxies get quenched by the Milky Way or by Reionisation? Today’s authors use cosmological simulations to find out!
The Need for (Sound) Speed
The fractal dimension as a new way to explore the mysterious link between turbulence and star formation.

Today’s undergraduate research post features a student who uses computer simulations to the evolution of dwarf galaxies.
FIR(E)ing Up Star Formation in Galaxy Pairs
Today’s paper uses FIRE-2 galaxy merger simulations to study star formation during the galaxy-pair stage of interactions.
UR #32: Simulations of Black Hole Evolution over Cosmic Time Periods
Today’s undergraduate research post features a student who uses computer simulations to simulate black holes and how they evolve over billions of years.
Do Aluminum Abundances Foil Our Theory of Galaxy Evolution?
Aluminum can be used for so much more than foil. What can it tell us about our solar system’s place in the galaxy? Read about today’s paper to find out more.
