Master student discovers a group of galaxies clustered together in the early Universe

While developing and testing astronomical software on existing data, a master student in astronomy fortuitously discovered a group of galaxies in the very early Universe.

Researcher: Cultural aspects of quantum theory are missing in physics classes 

Quantum mechanics is interpreted in many different – often unscientific – ways. This opens up questions about the foundations of quantum theory and its relationship with culture that physics educators should not ignore,…

Astronomers discover a swarm of galaxies orbiting a hyper-luminous galaxy

Using the Very Large Telescope and the radio telescope ALMA in Chile, a team of astronomers including researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute has discovered a swarm of galaxies orbiting the surroundings of a…

New method to map the surface of the moon increases accuracy to unprecedented levels

This new method uses a much more direct and precise calculation, it doesn’t rely on a whole set of parameters to be fed into the computer, and it can even calculate the uncertainties and the accuracy.

Compact, massive triple star system detected for the first time

How this unique combination of a binary set of stars and a revolving bigger star can form, is now the focus in a collaboration between two young researchers at the Niels Bohr Institute.
