Astronomers have identified one of the oldest “dead” galaxies ever observed and discovered new evidence that supermassive black holes can quietly choke off star formation over time, rather than destroying galaxies in sudden, violent events.
Astronomers have potentially captured the HD 135344B planet during its formation process, allowing for a new understanding of how planetary systems like ours come into existence.
A team of astronomers at the University of Hawai'i's Institute for Astronomers (IfA) have discovered a new type of cosmic explosion that exceeds anything observed previously.
In a study published in the Astrophysical Journal, researchers from the University of Washington, Yale University, and international partners have uncovered a surprising correlation between a galaxy's size and its cosmic surroundings.
A groundbreaking revelation by scientists at the University of Leeds has the potential to reshape astronomers' understanding of some of the largest and most prevalent stars in the universe.
Astronomers have discovered a correlation between the quantity of dust surrounding the supermassive black hole and the intensity of radio emissions emitted by exceptionally luminous galaxies.
On September 13th, a team of international astronomers, including scientists from Queen's University, discovered two potential polar ring galaxies using CSIRO'S ASKAP radio telescope's WALLABY survey.
