Heavier elements formed later in high-mass stars. We can't go back in time to study star formation in the early universe, but ...

However, only 1% of stars are considered high mass and why so few massive stars form is a longstanding puzzle of astrophysics. “There has been a school of thought that high-mass star formation must be ...

New observations have revealed a spiral pattern in a disk of material around a still forming, but already high-mass, baby star. This indicates that there is gravitational instability in the disk ...

A high-mass star forms and dies quickly. These stars form from protostars in just 10,000 to 100,000 years. ... "The Gas–Star Formation Cycle in Nearby Star-forming Galaxies. I.

Astronomers uncover how massive stars form by tracking interstellar ammonia. Using the U.S. National Science Foundation ...

This high-mass protostar is the third ever case of an observationally confirmed growth burst, and was intensely studied by the maser monitoring organisation (M2O, www.masermonitoring.org).

Using the NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) and the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), Chinese astronomers have observed a young stellar object known as G24.33+0.14 in ...
