Globular clusters maintain their structural integrity primarily due to the angular momentum of their constituent stars, preventing gravitational collapse towards the cluster's center of mass. While ...

New research demonstrated a possible formation mechanism of intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters, star clusters that could contain tens of thousands or even millions of tightly packed ...

Astronomers have explained how a galaxy cluster maintains its heat, despite emitting X-rays that cool the hot gas at its center. The group discovered the existence of a fast-moving, high-temperature ...

“Science is all about connectivity,” says Dr Sam Barrell (CBE), Deputy Chief Executive of Europe’s largest single-site biomedical research institute, the Francis Crick Institute. “It’s a highly ...
