Classifying exoplanet atmospheres opens new field of study Posted: 26 Apr 2022 07:17 AM PDT An international team of researchers examined data for 25 exoplanets and found some links among the properties of the atmospheres, including the thermal profiles and chemical abundances in them. These findings will help establish a generalized theory of planet formation which will improve our understanding of all planets, including the Earth. |
Scientists model landscape formation on Titan, revealing an Earth-like alien world Posted: 25 Apr 2022 07:49 AM PDT A new hypothesis reveals that a global sedimentary cycle driven by seasons could explain the formation of landscapes on Saturn's moon Titan. The research shows the alien world may be more Earth-like than previously thought. |
Scientists find elusive gas from post-starburst galaxies hiding in plain sight Posted: 25 Apr 2022 07:49 AM PDT Post-starburst galaxies were previously thought to scatter all of their gas and dust -- the fuel required for creating new stars -- in violent bursts of energy, and with extraordinary speed. Now, new data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) reveals that these galaxies don't scatter all of their star-forming fuel after all. Instead, after their supposed end, these dormant galaxies hold onto and compress large amounts of highly-concentrated, turbulent gas. But contrary to expectation, they're not using it to form stars. |
