The most realistic computer simulation of star formation yet offers stunning views of what the inside of a stellar nursery might look like. In the Star Formation in Gaseous Environments simulation, or ...

Monster black holes entered the cosmic scene soon after the Universe’s birth and grew rapidly, reaching millions or even ...

Merging neutron stars are excellent targets for multi-messenger astronomy. This modern and still very young method of astrophysics coordinates observations of the various signals from one and the same ...

Only one side of a silver crystal has the right structure to trigger ice formation, revealing how these particles help clouds ...

Astronomers have developed the most detailed simulation to date of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) – cosmic objects in which stars are born. The simulation reconstructs a highly realistic model of star ...

Have you ever looked up at the clouds in the sky and wondered how they form? Understanding cloud formation is really important for studying weather patterns and making accurate forecasts. Those clouds ...

Ever looked up at the clouds and wondered where they came from? That's exactly what atmospheric researcher Lubna Dada studies at the Paul Scherrer Institute. She is part of an international project ...

Answer: Clouds form when sufficiently moist air is cooled to the dew point temperature of the air or below, so that either liquid water droplets form on cloud condensation nuclei, or in the case of ...

The first report of this unusual cloud appeared in Weather magazine in 1948, in an article titled “Man-Made Cirrus?” The ...

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are complex, computationally expensive and not typically something that startups focus on. But that’s exactly what Boston- and Berlin-based Dive is doing ...

Engineering simulation and finite element analysis technology firm Ansys has purchased OnScale, a cloud engineering simulation service that was developed within the Thornton Tomasetti Weidlinger ...
