Feedback from AGN-driven Winds
Are the winds emanating from the active nucleus of a galaxy strong enough to shut off star formation? Astrobites reports.

What as-yet unidentified molecules lurk in the dark clouds of our nearby universe? Answering this requires observation, experiment, and theory — and GOTHAM is on the case.
Just how spherical are neutron stars? Astrobites reports on how we can measure spherical perfection for objects hundreds of light-years away.
In the census of our solar neighborhood we’re missing a key population: the coolest, dimmest substar dwarfs that lurk nearby. A citizen science project has now tackled this problem.
What does a fast radio burst look like at different frequencies? And what can that tell us about them?
A new look at hundreds of past solar flares may help us predict when a solar flare will be accompanied by a potentially hazardous ejection of mass.
Astrobites reports on how winds in star clusters can drive dramatic turbulence in enormous, expanding superbubbles.
Ever wondered how stellar binaries form? Check out this numerical simulation, which tracks the process over 400 years.
It turns out that this asteroid — a target for the upcoming Lucy mission, which will visit Jupiter trojans — isn’t alone.
Have we recently spotted the first equivalent of a fast radio burst located within our own galaxy?
Astrobites reports on how we can find non-uniform cloud cover on exoplanets using the James Webb Space Telescope.
How does the rate of binary black hole mergers change with time? The gravitational waves produced by undistinguished individual mergers might be able to help.
