Scientists Take a Step Closer to Solving the Mystery of Neutrino Masses

Representations of universe eras – (a) radiation, (b) matter, (c) dark energy – with the respective values of the equation of state ω = Γeff, where Γeff is the effective Grüneisen parameter. As dark energy becomes dominant, Γeff changes sign and emulates a phase transition in condensed matter physics (image: Results in Physics)

Scientists Uncover New Clues About the Universe’s Mysterious Expansion

Infrared image of the shockwave (red arc) created by the massive giant star Zeta Ophiuchi in an interstellar dust cloud. The tenuous winds of sun-like main-sequence stars are much more difficult to observe

The attached image shows the sky goddess Nut, covered in stars, is held aloft by her father, Shu, and is arched over Geb, her brother the Earth god. On the left, the rising sun (the falcon-headed god Re) sails up Nut’s legs. On the right, the setting sun sails down her arms towards the outstretched arms of Osiris, who will regenerate the sun in the netherworld during the night.

SLAC completes construction of the largest digital camera ever built for astronomy

The ULLYSES program studied two types of young stars: super-hot, massive, blue stars and cooler, redder, less massive stars than our Sun. The top panel is a Hubble Space Telescope image of a star-forming region containing massive, young, blue stars in 30 Doradus, the Tarantula Nebula. Located within the Large Magellanic Cloud, this is one of the regions observed by ULLYSES. The bottom panel shows an artist's concept of a cooler, redder, young star that's less massive than our Sun. This type of star is still gathering material from its surrounding, planet-forming disk.

Hubble Telescope’s Ambitious Survey Provides Unprecedented Insights into the Lives of Stars

The cosmic microwave background — the universe’s oldest light — has traversed vast distances before reaching us. During its extended journey, gravitational forces from massive cosmic structures caused its trajectory to bend before being captured by the South Pole Telescope.

Results from South Pole Telescope’s new camera emerge
