YPlasma has developed a new solid-state cooling solution that uses corona discharge to generate airflow without any moving ...

A wobbling jet from a supermassive black hole in a nearby galaxy is blasting gas out at a rate high enough to suppress star formation.

Morphological structure of the galactic outflow in VV 340a. This artistic rendering illustrates a multi-phase galactic ...

Active galactic nuclei, energetic and luminous regions powered by an accreting supermassive black hole at the center of some galaxies, can launch a jet that drives a gas outflow, shaping star ...

NASA Hubble data show stripped gas surrounding edge-on galaxy NGC 4388 in the Virgo cluster, revealing ionized plumes and structural details from black hole activity and cluster interactions.

Astronomers tallying up all the normal matter—stars, galaxies and gas—in the universe today have come up embarrassingly short of the total matter produced in the Big Bang 13.6 billion years ago. In ...

Bob Benjamin was observing the Milky Way when he noticed something odd. The professor in the University of Wisconsin-Madison's astronomy department, and co-author of a new study, saw a red, tilted ...

The Milky Way will have the fuel to continue forming stars, thanks to massive clouds of ionized gas raining down from its halo and intergalactic space. This is the conclusion of a new study by Nicolas ...

Astrophysicists have concluded that the Milky Way will have the fuel to continue forming stars, thanks to massive clouds of ionized gas raining down from its halo and intergalactic space. The Milky ...

Why is Christian Science in our name? Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that. The Church publishes the Monitor ...

A jet of weakly ionized gas molecules produces a more stable deformation on a liquid surface than a neutral gas jet. Blowing through a straw creates a small dimple on the surface of a drink. This ...

No one has ever seen what astronomers first observed using a refurbished 75-year-old telescope in the Arizona mountains. What it was turned out to be a massive cloud of ionized hydrogen gas spewed ...
