Our telescopes have captured images of a recent supernova called SN 2023rve, which exploded in the galaxy NGC 1097. SN 2023rve is now the brightest supernova in the sky, with a magnitude of about 13.9.

After surveying hundreds of extinct quasars, a team led by Professor Nobunari Kashikawa from the Department of Astronomy has found the behaviour of these active objects to be consistent through time.

Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) represent some of the most energetic phenomena in the cosmos. Their understanding is pivotal for astronomers, as they shed light on the dynamics at play in distant galaxies.

A recently published study from a group of astrophysicists on the arXiv preprint server has discussed the use of the Event Horizon Telescope to study millisecond pulsars.
