The magnetic field orientations of BYF 73, as derived from SOFIA data, are overlain on a composite image of the region taken by the Spitzer Space Telescope and Anglo-Australian Telescope. The circled ...

A high-resolution image of the magnetic field in the El Gordo cluster, including the Chandra X-ray image (blue part of the image), the NASA JWST infrared image (background galaxies of the image), and ...

For the first time, researchers have mapped the magnetic polarity of active regions on the far side of the sun, which is invisible from Earth. Using helioseismology and data from the NSF-NOAA Global ...

Researchers from The Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University developed a new unexpensive method of magnetic field mapping. Using 3D-printer and common laboratory equipment their team created automatic ...

The elliptical galaxy M87 sits 55 million light-years away, at the heart of the nearby Virgo Cluster. Deep inside this galaxy lurks a supermassive black hole that weighs 6.5 billion times the mass of ...

For decades after its discovery, observers could only see the solar chromosphere for a few fleeting moments: during a total solar eclipse, when a bright red glow ringed the Moon’s silhouette. More ...

Researchers at the U.S. National Science Foundation's National Solar Observatory have developed a method to determine the magnetic polarity of active regions on the sun's far side using ...
