Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have detected doubly deuterated water (D2O), or ‘heavy water,’ in the protoplanetary...
Designated Stephenson 2 DFK 52, the newly-discovered red supergiant resides in the massive stellar cluster RSGC2.
This image shows the red supergiant star...
As part of the CRISTAL (CII Resolved ISM in STar-forming galaxies with ALMA) survey, astronomers peered back to when the Universe was only about one billion...
Present-day disk galaxies often exhibit distinct thin and thick disks. The formation mechanisms of the two disks and the timing of their onset remain open...
Intense radiation from a quasar in one of these galaxies alters the gas properties in the other galaxy and dampens its ability to form new stars, according...
2MASX J23453268-0449256 (J2345-0449 for short), an extremely massive, rapidly rotating, jet-launching spiral galaxy approximately 947 million light-years...
Proxima Centauri’s flaring activity has been well known to astronomers using visible wavelengths, but new observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter...
Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have detected oxygen in the most distant confirmed galaxy ever found, JADES-GS-z14-0....
Astronomers have imaged planetesimal belts in 74 planetary systems as part of the REsolved ALMA and SMA Observations of Nearby Stars (REASONS) survey.

Using the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured...
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have captured high-resolution images of eight protoplanetary disks in Sigma...
NGC 1386 is a spiral galaxy located 53 million light-years away in the constellation of Eridanus.
This image of NGC 1386 combines data from VST and ALMA....
REBELS-25 existed as early as 700 million years after Big Bang, according to a paper published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.

These giant, hot bubbles of gas on the surface of R Doradus are approximately 75 times the size of our Sun, according to a paper published in the journal...
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the Subaru Telescope, astronomers have discovered a pair of merging gas-rich galaxies...
Astrophysicists with the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) Collaboration have conducted test observations achieving the highest resolution ever obtained from...
Using data from ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) and other telescopes, astronomers have found evidence for an intermediate-mass black hole in IRS 13,...
Hyperluminous infrared galaxies are the rarest and most extreme star-forming systems and found only in the distant Universe.
Stellar, cold-gas and ionized-gas...
