New COLIBRE simulations show how cold gas and dust help galaxies evolve from the early universe to today. (CREDIT: Monthly ...

Astronomers utilizing NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have uncovered a new class of galaxies that defy traditional cosmic categorization. This unexpected discovery, highlighted in a recent ...

Answers to some of cosmology's most pressing questions are obscured by simple dust. It concerns the Cosmic Noon, a period of time that began around 2 billion years after the Big Bang, when nearly all ...

Astronomers have observed a massive and extremely active barred spiral galaxy in the early Universe and found that it has important similarities and differences with modern galaxies. This improves our ...

The most realistic picture yet of how galaxies formed and then evolved from the beginning of time has been revealed in a ...

Now the journey continues to further refine the simulations of galaxy formation. With each technological achievement, Santi Roca-Fàbrega and his colleagues hope to add new pieces to the dizzying ...

The study of galaxies and their star formation processes remains a cornerstone of modern astrophysics. Galaxies are the fundamental building blocks of the Universe, each hosting a complex interplay of ...

Abstract : Weighing in at 1042 kilograms and measuring 1021 meters across, galaxies are perhaps the most awe-inspiring objects known to mankind. They are also the only places in an otherwise dark and ...

A new study suggests that most "post-starburst galaxies" cease star formation because they run out of fuel. But that's not ...

These three galaxy images from the AEGIS survey show a range of galaxy types: a disk-like spiral galaxy (top), a cloud-like elliptical galaxy (middle), and an irregular galaxy resulting from a ...
