One of the most surprising results from JWST has been the
discovery of a large population of compact red sources at z>4,
with very red rest-frame optical colors, blue UV slopes, and broad
Balmer lines. The compact sizes and luminous broad lines...
The interstellar medium (ISM) is a turbulent, multi-phase,
magnetic environment. It is home to vastly different gas phases,
from cold, dense clouds to hot, tenuous plasma. Magnetic fields
thread this interstellar environment, helping to sculpt...
Abstract: We present a wholly self-consistent,
complete cyclic bouncing cosmology based on components drawn from
string theory and constructed in a way that is under perturbative
control throughout (e.g., with temperatures well below the
string...
One of the primary mission goals of the Kepler space telescope
is to detect Earth-like terrestrial planets in the habitable zone
around Sun-like stars and characterize their occurrence rate.
Unfortunately, Earth-like planet candidates are at the...
Abstract: Recently a fruit fly brain was
reconstructed in electron microscopic detail. Tens of millions of
synapses were identified on over 100,000 neurons' entangled
branches, which would span a football field if unraveled end to
end. This "fly...
