The near-infrared camera of JWST highlights the connection between the two galaxies, sensitive to the emission of the stars and gas stretching between the two objects. But JWST also observed the ...

When a black hole actively consumes matter, it’s referred to as being in the quasar phase, which could last a few million ...

Astronomers have identified the largest and most distant water reservoir ever detected in the universe. This immense ...

Galaxies are enveloped by the circumgalactic medium (CGM), an invisible gas cloud. It constitutes 70% of the galaxy's mass.

If this galaxy is typical, then the study, published today in Nature Astronomy, indicates that our galaxy is already ...

A shroud of gas stretches up to a million light years around every galaxy and is its first interaction with the wider ...

Some things that have really piqued my interest are galactic dynamics and evolution, extragalactic astronomy, matter distribution (dark and otherwise), and cosmology. My previous undergraduate work ...

I am also investigating the mechanisms of rapid black hole grow using extreme minor merger secondary AGN. Additionally, I have begun the Chandra LOw-Count Quasar (CLOCQ) Survey, where I am mining ...

In the contemporary Universe, massive galaxies are plentiful. But the Universe wasn’t always like this. Astronomers think that galaxies grew large through mergers, so what we see in space is the ...

The answer may have come from researchers at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) in New Jersey, who were able to devise a modification to a plasma-measuring technique called proton ...
