New 'alien' invaders found in the Milky Way: Queen's University astronomer
As many as one quarter of the star clusters in our Milky Way - many more than previously thought - are invaders from other galaxies, according to a new study. View More (2010-03-01)
Chandra catches 'piranha' black holes
Supermassive black holes have been discovered to grow more rapidly in young galaxy clusters, according to new results from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. View More (2007-07-25)
X-ray satellites discover the biggest collisions in the Universe
The orbiting X-ray telescopes XXM-Newton and Chandra have caught a pair of galaxy clusters merging into a giant cluster. The discovery adds to existing evidence that galaxy clusters can collide faster than previously thought. View More (2007-07-18)
Planck spots hot gas bridging galaxy cluster pair
ESA's Planck space telescope has made the first conclusive detection of a bridge of hot gas connecting a pair of galaxy clusters across 10 million light-years of intergalactic space. View More (2012-11-21)
Largest ever survey of very distant galaxy clusters completed
An international team of researchers led by a UC Riverside astronomer has completed the largest ever survey designed to find very distant clusters of galaxies. View More (2009-07-01)
Baffling boxy bulge
When targeting spiral galaxy bulges, astronomers often seek edge-on galaxies, as their bulges are more easily distinguishable from the disc. View More (2009-11-18)
GALAXY CLUSTERS, NEAR AND FAR, HAVE A LOT IN COMMON
ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY PRESS NOTICE: View More (2005-03-28)
Astronomers find the most distant star clusters hidden behind a nearby cluster
Astronomers have discovered the most distant population of star clusters ever seen, hidden behind one of the nearest such clusters to Earth. View More (2007-01-11)
Astronomers Discover Mysterious New Star Clusters
A UK-led team of astronomers has discovered a completely new type of star cluster around a neighbouring galaxy. View More (2005-04-02)
Galaxy NGC 4214: A star formation laboratory
Size isn't everything... in astronomy, at least. Dwarf galaxy NGC 4214 may be small, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in content. View More (2011-05-12)
Record-breaking galaxy cluster discovered
A massive galaxy cluster nearly six billion light years from Earth has been discovered with an astounding and unexpected burst of star formation - more prodigious than any galaxy cluster yet observed, an international team of astronomers and NASA announced today. View More (2012-08-16)
Cosmic thermostats provide clue to 30 year old astronomy puzzle (Embargoed until 1900 hrs London time Wednesday 17 July 2002)
A cosmic phenomenon involving pockets of hot gas in space which appear not to cool down has been puzzling astronomers for three decades. Now new research by Dr Christian Kaiser at the University of Southampton and Professor Marcus Brüggen of the International University Bremen, Germany, shows that the energy of the hot gas is actually replenished by jets emitted by black holes. Their... View More (2002-07-16)
Ancient galaxy cluster contains 'modern' galaxies
A team of astronomers including Ivelina Momcheva of the Carnegie Observatories has discovered the most distant cluster of galaxies ever found. View More (2010-05-13)
ESA's XMM-Newton gains deep insights into the distant Universe
Using XMM-Newton, astronomers have obtained the world's deepest 'wide screen' X-ray image of the cosmos to date. Their observations show newly discovered clusters of galaxies and provide insights into the structure of the distant Universe" Unlike grains of sand on a beach, matter is not uniformly spread throughout the Universe. Instead, it is concentrated into galaxies like our own which... View More (2003-07-14)
NASA's Swift satellite images a galaxy ablaze with starbirth
Combining 39 individual frames taken over 11 hours of exposure time, NASA astronomers have created this ultraviolet mosaic of the nearby "Triangulum Galaxy." View More (2008-02-26)
XMM-Newton reveals the origin of elements in galaxy clusters
Deep observations of two X-ray bright clusters of galaxies with ESA's XMM-Newton satellite allowed a group of international astronomers to measure their chemical composition with an unprecedented accuracy. View More (2006-05-11)
Galaxy cluster smashes distance record
The most distant galaxy cluster yet has been discovered by combining data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory and optical and infrared telescopes. View More (2009-10-23)
When galaxy clusters collide
A UC Davis graduate student who is leading a study of the collision of galaxy clusters 5 billion light years away will discuss the team's findings in a press briefing at the annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Austin, Texas. View More (2012-01-11)
Stripped down: Hubble highlights 2 galaxies that are losing it
Ram pressure is the drag force that results when something moves through a fluid - much like the wind you feel in your face when bicycling, even on a still day - and occurs in this context as galaxies orbiting about the centre of the cluster move through the intra-cluster medium, which then sweeps out gas from within the galaxies. View More (2009-09-30)
Ghosts of the Future: First Giant Structures of the Universe
Astronomers using the South Pole Telescope report that they have discovered the most massive galaxy cluster yet seen at a distance of 7 billion light-years. The cluster (designated SPT-CL J0546-5345) weighs in at around 800 trillion Suns, and holds hundreds of galaxies. View More (2010-10-14)
