For nearly a century, astronomers have known that the universe is expanding. Most galaxies are carried outward with the flow ...

The group of Prof. Habouzit has strong theoretical expertise in the formation and evolution of galaxies and their massive black holes (MBHs), as well as advanced simulation modeling.

A newly identified planet candidate, HD 137010 b, looks strikingly Earth-like in size and orbit — but it may be colder than Mars due to its dimmer star. If it has a thick enough atmosphere, though, ...

Earlier this week, science writer Paul Sutter covered a bold new study that leans toward so‑called “fuzzy” dark matter as the ...

Most galaxies in the universe have a supermassive black hole (SMBH,) at their centre. If matter is actively accretted onto it, the galaxies are classified as `active' and they are dubbed as Active ...

The broadest planned survey by NASA’s upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will reveal hundreds of millions of galaxies scattered across the cosmos. After Roman launches as soon as this fall, ...

Supermassive black hole binaries form naturally when galaxies merge, but scientists have only confidently observed a very few ...
