How do supermassive black holes get so big? An international team of astronomers, including scientists at the U.S. National Science Foundation National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NSF NRAO) have discovered a powerful, rotating, magnetic wind that they believe is helping a galaxy’s central supermassive black hole to grow.
NRAO and the Central Development Laboratory (CDL) will showcase the latest developments in radio instrumentation technology at the 2024 International Microwave Symposium, where NRAO scientist Marian Pospieszalski will be awarded the 2024 Microwave Pioneer Award.
Most of the Universe is invisible to the human eye. The building blocks of stars are only revealed in…
At the 244th meeting of the American Astronomical Society (AAS), researchers unveiled groundbreaking findings from a pioneering high-angular resolution program that sheds new light on the process of planet formation in circumstellar disks around young stars in binary systems. Leveraging the unparalleled capabilities of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and near-infrared, component-resolved spectroscopy at the Keck II 10-meter telescope, the study offers a transformative understanding of the conditions that nurture or inhibit planet formation.
The American Astronomical Society (AAS) will hold its 244th Meeting June 9 – 13 in Madison, Wisconsin. The National…
