The interstellar medium (ISM) is typically divided into distinct regions, each defined by specific properties such as density, temperature, and composition. Among these, molecular clouds represents the densest phase.

The exoplanet K2-18 was discovered in 2015 and has since emerged as one of the most promising candidates in the search for habitable worlds.

Type Ia supernovae are a crucial class of astronomical events in the study of cosmology, due to their use as standard candles.

Superclusters are among the largest known structures in the universe, consisting of groups of galaxy clusters.

One of the key questions in modern cosmology is determining the precise value of the Hubble parameter (H₀), which describes the linear relationship between an object's recession velocity and its distance.

It is not quite understood why we are able to observe supermassive black holes (SMBHs) early in our universe’s history. Leading theories can be separated into two camps.

Once a star has exhausted the nuclear fuel available in its core, it can no longer exert the necessary outward pressure to counteract the gravitational pressure from its own mass.

Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that occupy the gap between the largest planets and the smallest stars.

Following the formation of baryonic matter just after the Big Bang, the universe entered a period known as the dark ages, where this matter drifted aimlessly through an otherwise empty cosmos.

Maximilian Häberle, a Phd student at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA), is the lead author of a recently published study on the discovery of an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) at the centre of the Omega Ce

Observations of black holes in the universe reveal that they exhibit a wide range of masses. However, there is a significant gap in our understanding between the lightest and heaviest black holes.
