Scientists have long been aware of the massive elliptical galaxy, M87. The galaxy was first observed in the late 18th century by Charles Messier, who cataloged objects in the sky specifically to avoid them when looking for ...
To probe the mysteries of how galaxies evolve over time, scientists needed a supercomputer with out-of-this-world computational power.

Using the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (uGMRT), astronomers have performed radio observations of the Ophiuchus galaxy cluster. Results of the observations, published August 26 in The Astrophysical Journal, deliver ...
Nucleons, which include protons and neutrons, are the composite particles that make up atomic nuclei. While these particles have been widely studied in the past, their internal structure has not yet been fully elucidated.
Genomes contain the complete library of information required to build and maintain a living organism—the figurative blueprints of life. In eukaryotes, genomes are stored in the nuclei, where they are organized into chromosomes. ...
