An international team of astronomers reports the detection of a new, hot-dust-obscured galaxy (DOG). The galaxy, which received designation WISE J190445.04+485308.9, was found at a relatively low redshift of 0.415, which ...
The warming during the summer months in Europe has been much faster than the global average, according to a new study by researchers at Stockholm University published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres. As ...

Using NASA's Chandra X-ray observatory, astronomers from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) and elsewhere have investigated an active galaxy known as Markarian 78. They report that the source exhibits termination ...
Astronomers may have detected a "sonic boom" from a powerful blast known as a kilonova. This event was seen in GW170817, a merger of two neutron stars and the first object detected in both gravitational waves and electromagnetic ...
