Using Galaxy Halos to Study Baryonic Feedback in FLAMINGO
Today’s authors use FLAMINGO simulations to probe the tension between different observational methods of estimating cosmological parameters.
Super-Earth, Super-Tectonics?
Turns out there’s more than one way to “plate” a planet!
The Impact of Blazar Shape on Polarization Measurements
Today’s authors consider the way AGN jet shape changes our measurements of blazar polarization.
Twinkle, twinkle, little quasar! Can you tell me how far away you are?
When we don’t have spectra, we can estimate the distance to a quasar by calculating its photometric redshift. Today’s authors present a new way to use the ‘flickering’ of quasars to improve these distance estimates.
Get back in line! A disc that won’t stay aligned with its planet
Planets should form aligned with their host protoplanetary discs. So why does this star have a planet and disc that aren’t at all in line?
The Dark Side of Exoplanets
Today’s bite explores planets made of dark matter and how we might find them.
