Filaments and other structures have been discovered in the process of mapping the molecular gas over a 9° × 6.5° area toward the GEM OB1 association in the galactic anti-center direction.

Simulations show that over time, sufficiently compact systems of super-Earths can clear their natal protoplanetary disk gas either inward to feed their star or outward to be blown away from the system.

N-body simulations show that binary black hole (BBH) mergers that result from binary-single interactions are likely to dominate the population of high-eccentricity BBH mergers detectable by LIGO.

HST photometry has revealed a population of intragalactic globular clusters (GCs) extending out to at least 500 kpc from the center of the Perseus Cluster; there may be 50,000 or more of these GCs.

Chelsea X. Huang et al 2017 AJ 153 210

N-body simulations show that unstable outer (>1 AU) giant planets can greatly reduce the multiplicity of inner super-Earths and leave the surviving population with large eccentricities and inclinations.

L. Marcotulli et al 2017 ApJ 839 96

A multiwavelength study of three high-redshift blazars shows that inverse Compton scattering of low-energy photons supplied by the broad-line region can explain the X-ray and gamma-ray emission observed.
