Research Provides Explanation for the Lack of Spiral Structure in Protoplanetary Discs

Giant planets that developed early in a star system's life could solve a mystery of why spiral structures are not observed in young protoplanetary discs, according to a new study by University of Warwick astronomers.

New Hubble Data Reveals the Reason Behind Missing Dark Matter in a Galaxy

New data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope provides further evidence for tidal disruption in the galaxy NGC 1052-DF4. This result explains a previous finding that this galaxy is missing most of its dark matter. By studying the galaxy's light and globular cluster distribution, astronomers have concluded that the gravity forces of the neighbouring galaxy NGC 1035 stripped the dark matter from NGC 1052-DF4 and are now tearing the galaxy apart.

Astronomers Detect Fast-Moving Carbon Monoxide Gas Flowing Away from a Star System

A unique stage of planetary system evolution has been imaged by astronomers, showing fast-moving carbon monoxide gas flowing away from a star system over 400 light years away, a discovery that provides an opportunity to study how our own solar system developed.

Three-Dimensional Magnetic 'Vortex Rings' Offer Fresh Perspectives for Magnetic Devices

Magnets often harbour hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in a well-defined pattern within the material.

Study Suggests NGC1052-DF4 Galaxy is not an Anomaly, but a Victim of Theft

A distant galaxy with virtually no dark matter has questioned the standard theory of galaxy formation. Fresh evidence indicates the galaxy is not an anomaly, but a victim of theft.

New Milky Way Map Shows Earth Moves Closer to Black Hole at its Center

A new study shows that Earth is traveling 7 km/second faster and nearly 2000 light-years closer to the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy.

The Case of the Missing Dark Matter: New Suspect Found in Galactic Mystery

A faraway galaxy with almost no dark matter has threatened to break our theory of galaxy formation. New evidence suggests the galaxy isn’t an anomaly – but a victim of theft.

Quantum Sensing Abilities of Nanodiamonds Could Enable Earlier Detection of Diseases

The quantum sensing abilities of nanodiamonds can be used to improve the sensitivity of paper-based diagnostic tests, potentially allowing for earlier detection of diseases such as HIV, according to a study led by UCL researchers in the i-sense McKendry group.
