Professor Woong-bae Zee of the College of Liberal Studies at Sejong University has revealed that a galaxy does not possess ...

This Collection features original research on the mechanisms driving star formation, the lifecycle of various stellar types, and the complex interactions between stars and their environments. The ...

What can fast-spinning stars known as “blue lurkers” teach us about star formation and evolution? This is what a recent study being presented at the 245th American Astronomical Society meeting hopes ...

Star formation is an intricate process that transforms vast molecular clouds into newborn stars, often accompanied by the formation of circumstellar discs composed of gas and dust. These ...

A study published today in Astronomy & Astrophysics marks a significant milestone in our understanding of the formation and dynamical evolution of multiple stellar populations in globular clusters ...

NASA’s Roman Space Telescope will map the Milky Way using infrared observations, studying star formation, stellar evolution, star clusters, and hidden galactic structures over a two-year survey.

'The results of our study provide the first solid evidence that globular clusters formed through multiple star-formation events and place fundamental constraints on the dynamical path followed by the ...

What if the secrets of the early universe are written not in distant galaxies, but in the gas and dust of our galactic neighbors? It is the one question that drives the recent collaborative ...

Astronomers have observed a massive and extremely active barred spiral galaxy in the early Universe and found that it has important similarities and differences with modern galaxies. This improves our ...

MUSE survey, an international team of astronomers has inspected a nuclear star cluster of the nearby large spiral galaxy ...
