Yunjing Wu et al 2023 ApJL 942 L1

Using JWST observations, researchers have identified the most distant galaxy showing distinct spiral structure ever, at a time when the universe was only about 2 billion years old.

Alex Griffiths et al 2022 ApJ 941 181

Hubble observations suggest that low-mass, line-emitting galaxies might not be a main source of photons during the epoch of reionization, during which the abundant neutral hydrogen gas in the universe was ionized.

Michael G. Richer et al 2022 AJ 164 243

Observations with the Very Large Telescope reveal the plasma within a planetary nebula to be complex, containing two components with different temperatures, densities, and chemical compositions.

A laboratory study of nanometer-sized dust grains in simulated Martian soil helps scientists explore thermal creep, a process in which gases flow out of porous soil.

Chad Bustard and S. Peng Oh 2022 ApJ 941 65

Recent research delves into the method by which turbulence transfers energy to cosmic rays: high-energy charged particles accelerated by supernovae and other cosmic sources.

María José Maureira et al 2022 ApJL 941 L23

Shock heating likely explains the observed dust temperature in the vicinity of a triple class 0 protostellar system; the class 0 stage of stellar evolution likely lasts about 10,000 years.
