Deep inside the remains of an exploded star lies a twisted knot of newly minted molecules and dust. Using ALMA, astronomers mapped the location of these new molecules to create a high-resolution 3-D image of this “dust factory,” providing new insights into the relationship between a young supernova remnant and its galaxy.
The ALMA Board selects Dr. Sean Dougherty as the new ALMA Director for a 5-year term beginning April 2018.
Radio astronomer Bernie Fanaroff Adds 52nd Jansky Lectureship Award to his prominent list of accomplishments.
VLBA images detect orbital motion of two supermassive black holes as they circle each other at the center of a distant galaxy.
New evidence from the VLA suggests that a jet of material ejected by a young star may have triggered the formation of a second, younger star.
