NRAO Contest Winners Illustrate Diverse Cosmic Phenomena
Winners in NRAO’s VLA 40th Anniversary Image Contest are from around the world, and their works illustrate a fascinating variety of celestial objects. Entries combined observational data from the VLA with data from optical, infrared, and X-ray telescopes, and from computer simulations.
Astronomers Measure Wind Speed on a Brown Dwarf
Using VLA and Spitzer observations, astronomers are able to determine wind speeds on a brown dwarf for the first time. They believe the technique also could be used for exoplanets.
Radio Jupiter: Seeing the Giant Planet in a New Light
By looking at Jupiter in radio light, ALMA and the VLA reveal a world hidden by its layers of clouds.
