Star formation is an intricate process that transforms vast molecular clouds into newborn stars, often accompanied by the formation of circumstellar discs composed of gas and dust. These ...

The combination of theoretical models and empirical data provides a new perspective for understanding the complex interactions between young stars and their environments. A study led by Paolo Padoan, ...

Protostellar jets were detected for the first time using ALMA in the Milky Way’s outer region, showing that star formation works similarly in distant, low-metallicity regions, whereas the chemistry ...

The study of galaxies and their star formation processes remains a cornerstone of modern astrophysics. Galaxies are the fundamental building blocks of the Universe, each hosting a complex interplay of ...

Theorists have long wondered how massive stars–up to 120 times the mass of the Sun–can form without blowing away the clouds of gas and dust that feed their growth. But the problem turns out to be less ...
