Deciphering the universe’s secrets is partly done through observation, but just as important are solid models of the forces ...

Scientists have developed a new computer model to explore the the interstellar medium, in turn generating stunning images ...

Astronomers have developed a computer simulation to explore, in unprecedented detail, magnetism and turbulence in the ...

Scientists mapped turbulent energy in the interstellar medium with record resolution, revealing magnetic effects and insights ...

From the ocean’s rolling swells to the bumpy ride of a jetliner, turbulence is everywhere. Yet despite its ubiquity, turbulence remains one of the greatest unsolved problems in physics. It's ...

We became the first research group to use 3-D printing to visualize star formation. To start, we ran several simulations representing various physical extremes. One simulation had very strong ...

In this study, using simulation data, we were able to show that Bondi-Hoyle accretion plays an important role in late-stage star formation by increasing the lifetime and mass reservoir of ...

A computer simulation takes us deep into a primordial ... the telescope has captured stunning views of star formation closer to Earth. A star in the process of sparking to life blows material ...

“Our observations provide direct evidence that massive stars can form through disk-mediated accretion up to tens of solar masses,” said Dr. Alberto Sanna, lead author of the study. “The NSF VLA’s ...

It’s a reminder that nothing in space happens in isolation. From the first spark of star formation to the slow shaping of a solar system, everything is tied together by the environment around it.

In this study, using simulation data, we were able to show that Bondi-Hoyle accretion plays an important role in late-stage star formation by increasing the lifetime and mass reservoir of ...
