Hubble Highlights Brilliant Patches of Newly Formed Stars Within the Lensed Galaxy

When it comes to the distant universe, even the keen vision of NASA's Hubble Space Telescope can only go so far. Teasing out finer details requires clever thinking and a little help from a cosmic alignment with a gravitational lens.

VLT's SPHERE Allows Astronomers to Take Real Photography of an Exoplanet

An international team of astronomers, including members of the University of Geneva (UNIGE), Switzerland, discovered an exoplanet by direct imaging using SPHERE, an instrument designed and developed by a consortium of 12 European institutes on the Very Large Telescope ESO, based in Chile.

Researchers Reveal Unique Nature of Quantum Solitary Waves

Solitary waves, called solitons, appear in many forms. Maybe the most recognizable form is the tsunami, which forms after a disruption on the ocean floor and can travel, without any reduction in intensity, at high speeds for hundreds of miles.

Neutron Scattering Techniques Used for Detecting Higgs Amplitude Mode in a Two-Dimensional Material

Sophisticated neutron scattering techniques have been used by a team headed by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory in order to detect a mysterious quantum state called the Higgs amplitude mode in a two-dimensional material.

Research Shows that Edge of Plasma Could Remain Hot Due to Reduced Recycling

Two major issues confronting magnetic-confinement fusion energy are enabling the walls of devices that house fusion reactions to survive bombardment by energetic particles, and improving confinement of the plasma required for the reactions.

MSU Researchers Use Strong-Field Laser to Recreate Interstellar Ions

Trihydrogen, or H3+, has been called the molecule that made the universe, where it plays a greater role in astrochemistry than any other molecule. While H3+ is astronomically abundant, no scientist understood the mechanisms that form it from organic molecules.

ESO's Very Large Telescope Captures Magnificent Face-on View of Barred Spiral Galaxy

This picturesque spiral galaxy appears to be tranquil, but there is more to it than meets the eye. Messier 77 is one of the closest active galaxies, which are some of the most energetic and spectacular objects in the Universe.

New Research Provides Insight on Gravitational Dance that Drives Star Formation in Interstellar Medium

Swirling motions in clouds of cold, dense gas have given, for the first time, an active insight into how gravity creates the compact cores from which stars form in the interstellar medium. The results will be presented today, Thursday 6 July, by Gwen Williams at the National Astronomy Meeting at the University of Hull.
