A team of researchers at the Institute of Astrophysics of the Canary Islands (IAC) has created a new simulation of early galaxy formation. The simulation allows us to get a fascinating, albeit brief ...

Artist's conception of early starbursting galaxies. UC Davis astronomers collaborated on new simulations showing how bright galaxies could emerge early in the universe. Stars and galaxies are shown in ...

In collaboration with the US' Georgia Institute of Technology, researchers from Maynooth University in Ireland have unveiled a new computer simulation that mirrors early universe conditions, ...

Image: Snapshots of the time evolution of a collision of two spiral galaxies with black holes at their center from a computer simulation. Color indicates temperature and brightness the gas density.

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 ...

Artist conception of early starbursting galaxies. The image is rendered from FIRE simulation data used for this research that can explain recent JWST results. Stars and galaxies are shown in the ...

The simulated Milky Way-like galaxy at present taken from the simulation produced in the study. Simulation: Takayuki Saitoh (Kobe University/Tokyo Tech ELSI). The hundreds of gold-rich stars ...

Joanna Thompson: This is Scientific American’s 60 second science. I’m Joanna Thompson. In 2018, a group of astronomers from Yale discovered something odd: two galaxies that had almost no dark matter.

Ultramassive black holes (UMBHs), observed to be tens of billions of times the Sun's mass, pose a theoretical challenge regarding their rapid formation early in the universe. A proposed hypothesis, ...
