Image: Snapshots of the time evolution of a collision of two spiral galaxies with black holes at their center from a computer simulation. Color indicates temperature and brightness the gas density.

This animation shows the simulated evolution of a galaxy over 200 million years. While the simulations look very similar with and without the machine learning AI model, the AI model performed 4 times ...

A probabilistic machine learning method trained on cosmological simulations is used to determine whether stars in 10,000 nearby galaxies formed internally or were accreted from other galaxies during ...

Astronomers studying galaxy evolution have long struggled to understand what causes star formation to shut down in massive galaxies. Although many theories have been proposed to explain this process, ...

A research team led by Prof. Wang Huiyuan from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has made a groundbreaking discovery, identifying for the first time an exceptionally strong ...

The most active galaxies always eventually stop producing stars, but astronomers struggled to understand why this phenomenon ...

New supercomputer simulations suggest the Milky Way could be surrounded by dozens more faint, undetected satellite galaxies—up to 100 more than we currently know. These elusive "orphan" galaxies have ...
