Webb detected rare neon gas in M83. This may signal a hidden black hole, challenging the idea that the galaxy has only ...

Astronomer Charles Steinhardt said most stars we see "might have formed under different conditions than we previously ...

Some galaxies that should have ceased forming stars long ago are defying expectations. Anew theory proposes the existence of ...

Our new study of the nearby starburst galaxy Haro 11 has shown that strong X-ray-emitting superwinds may be a key mechanism enabling galaxies to leak ionizing radiation, which is believed to have ...

The Hubble space telescope recently captured a beautifully detailed view of NGC 4526, one of the so-called starburst galaxies within Virgo. SEE ALSO: These images show the spectacular results of a ...

This galaxy lies some 300 million light-years away from us, and is currently experiencing an extraordinarily high rate of star formation -- a starburst. Normal galaxies produce only a couple of ...

As heavy elements were released, they started to form molecules—dust—that blocked the visible light from these so-called starburst galaxies, hiding much of this universe-defining era of re ...

Post-starburst galaxies were previously believed to expel all of their molecular gas, a behavior that caused them to stop forming stars. New observations have revealed that these galaxies actually ...
