We will use this information to distinguish whether Crater is 1) a dwarf galaxy that formed in a dark matter potential, or 2) a globular cluster that has grown to its current size via internal dynamical evolution. In either case, we will learn what mechanisms are responsible for Crater's ...
Stellar black holes are small compared to supermassive black holes at the center of most galaxies. 与大多数星系中心的超大质量黑洞相比,恒星黑洞很小。 Sagittarius A* is the supermassive black hole at the heart of the Milky Way. 人马座A*是银河系中心的超大质量黑洞。 It is 4 million times the ...
Stephenson 2-18 size compared to other large stars, image: Wikimedia Commons/THE COLOSSAL GALAXY NAMED IC1101 (CC BY-SA 4.0) With a current radius estimate of St2-18, it would take almost 9 hours to complete a circle around the star’s surface travelling at the speed of light. In comp...
Sites in the Southern Hemisphere were chosen to be the locations of the SKA Observatory because they have a clear view of the entirety of the Milky Way, as well as views out into intergalactic space. In contrast, from more northerly countries such as the U.K., the core of our galaxy ba...
Also, Heavy REE (higher atomic weights) are less common as compared to Light REE. Although REE are fairly distributed across different geographies, the extraction of REE is most challenging part, because of complex processing and intensive environmental effects. ...
then it has to be seen nearly face-on because of the small variations of GRB distances around the object's centre. The ring could though instead be a projection of a sphere, where the GRBs all occurred within a 250 million year period, a short timescale compared with the age of the ...
It needs to be 39 m to accomplish these goals. The size of the ELT and its dome compared with the Statue of Liberty. (Image credit: ESO) What are the Extremely Large Telescope's science objectives? There are eight main science areas that the ELT will focus on: the solar system; ...
