The Atomic Spectroscopy Group provides standardized measurements used across wide swaths of science and industry. The Trump ...

A highly anticipated astronomical event could finally unfold in the coming days, as the enigmatic T Coronae Borealis, also ...

Astronomers rely on clear observations to study celestial objects, but cosmic dust alters what we see, making stars appear ...

A recent study reveals that the famous Wolf-Rayet 104 "pinwheel star" holds more mystery but is even less likely to be the ...

Astronomers have constructed the first detailed 3D map of the properties of cosmic dust in our home galaxy. For their map, the astronomers used 130 million spectra from ESA's Gaia mission, results ...

Astronomers at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy have created the most comprehensive three-dimensional map of the characteristics of cosmic dust in the Milky Way galaxy, according to a study ...

Alpha Centauri, the closest star system to Earth ... a light analysis technique called spectroscopy. In this interactive, learn the basics of spectroscopy and use the technique to reveal the ...

My other major area of interest is modeling/simulating exoplanet 3-D climate patterns of hypothetical Earth-like planets based on different orbital parameters, planet obliquity and rotational period, ...

118, No. 840 (February 2006), pp. 227-235 (9 pages) ABSTRACT We present optical spectra of a flare on Barnard’s star. Several photospheric and chromospheric species were enhanced by the flare heating.

The bright, visible component of the system is a giant star of spectral type A0III, while the nebula-generating companion is now a hot, sub-luminous O-type star. Previous observations of NGC 1514 ...

My previous work includes characterizing substructure in the continuum emission of compact protoplanetary disks, identifying gravitationally lensed submm galaxies, and probing Sun-as-a-star spectral ...
