A ring of 20 OMEGA laser beams was used to generate supersonic, cylindrical, stable plasma jets with mega-gauss-strength magnetic fields. These jets can be used to simulate and study astrophysical jets.

Predictions for the upcoming Wide Field InfraRed Survey Telescope (WFIRST) mission suggest the survey should detect a total of ~1400 bound exoplanets with mass greater than ~0.1 M_⊕ via microlensing.

D. J. McComas et al 2019 ApJ 872 127

Recent IBEX observations are consistent with the heliosphere being shaped by the combined flow and magnetic pressures of the local interstellar medium, and they support a non-spherical heliosphere model.

A vast majority of a sample of 49 supermassive black holes at z ~ 6 are more massive than expected from the local black-hole–halo mass relation, suggesting growth of the black holes precedes that of the halos.
