Colliding neutron stars provide a new way to measure the expansion of the Universe

In recent years, astronomy has seen itself in a bit of crisis: Although we know that the Universe expands, and although we know approximately how fast, the two primary ways to measure this expansion do not agree. Now…

Strong at LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA in Japan

Scientists from around the world gather in Toyama, Japan, for the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaboration meeting September 11-14, 2023. The focus of the meeting was discussing the progress of the ongoing fourth observing run…

New Ph.D.: Plugging numbers into a formula isn't physics 

When students view physics formulas only as mathematical tools, they fail to understand physics in a meaningful way. We need to teach students to ask why, says new Ph.D.

Galakser der skygger for lyset Hvis en galakse tilfældigvis ligger langs sigtelinjen mod en fjernere, klar lyskilde, vil galaksen “skygge” for lyskilden og absorbere noget af dens lys. Denne absorption skyldes de gas- o…

A galaxy group in the early Universe

Contrary to typical observations, the galaxy was discovered not by the light it emits, but by the light it absorbs. The galaxy itself evades observations, but has at least one nearby companion.
