Astronomers Discover Mysterious Circular Ring – Likely of Intergalactic Origin
By Western Sydney University
May 16, 2022

Western Sydney University researchers, together with an international team of experts, have discovered a mysterious circular ring near our neighboring galaxy that could be the first known case of an intergalactic Supernova Remnant – remains of an exploded star that could be up to 7,000 years old.

Dubbed a ‘rogue’ Supernova Remnant by the scientists and named J0624–6948, it is most likely located in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) – a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way – and its position suggests a previously unobserved origin.

“It’s bananas,” said Nelson. “These galaxies should not have had time to form.”

 

Explaining the existence of such massive galaxies close to the dawn of time would require scientists to revisit either some basic rules of cosmology or the understanding of how the first galaxies were seeded from small clouds of stars and dust.

 

“It turns out we found something so unexpected it actually creates problems for science,” said Leja. “It calls the whole picture of early galaxy formation into question.

These aren't ordinary stars. (LOFAR/LOL Survey)

 

The image above may look like a fairly normal picture of the night sky, but what you're looking at is a lot more special than just glittering stars.

Each of those white dots is an active supermassive black hole.

 

And each of those black holes is devouring material at the heart of a galaxy millions of light-years away – that's how they could be pinpointed at all.

 

Released in 2021, this image contains 25,000 such dots, It's the most detailed map to date of black holes at low radio frequencies, an achievement that took years and a Europe-sized radio telescope to compile.

 

"This is the result of many years of work on incredibly difficult data," explained astronomer Francesco de Gasperin of the University of Hamburg in Germany back in February 2021.

 

"We had to invent new methods to convert the radio signals into images of the sky."

Wolf-Rayet 124: A Star in Transition

 

 

Wolf-Rayet stars are a rare prelude to the famous final act of massive stars: the supernova.

 

In one of its first observations, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope captured the Wolf-Rayet star WR 124 in unprecedented detail. A distinctive halo of gas and dust frames the star and glows in the infrared light detected by Webb, displaying knotty structure and a history of episodic ejections.

Hubble does it again. 

 

A dual quasar shines light on two supermassive black holes on a collision course inside a galaxy merger

 

This artist’s concept shows the brilliant glare of two quasars residing in the cores of two galaxies that are in the chaotic process of merging. The gravitational tug-of-war between the two galaxies ignites a firestorm of star birth. Quasars are brilliant beacons of intense light from the centers of distant galaxies. They are powered by supermassive black holes voraciously feeding on infalling matter. This feeding frenzy unleashes a torrent of radiation that can outshine the collective light of billions of stars in the host galaxy. In a few tens of millions of years, the black holes and their galaxies will merge, and so will the quasar pair, forming an even more massive black hole. Credit: NASA, ESA, Joseph Olmsted (STScI).

 

Astronomers have made a rare discovery in the early universe involving two actively feeding supermassive black holes—or quasars—just 10,000 light-years apart from each other, that are on the verge of a colossal collision.

 

Using a suite of space- and ground-based telescopes, including two Maunakea Observatories in Hawaiʻi—W. M. Keck Observatory and Gemini North—the researchers found the pair of black holes embedded within two galaxies that merged when the universe was just 3 billion years young.

 

The study, led by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, is published in today's issue of the journal Nature.

 

Finding such a system is difficult because of the challenge distinguishing two black holes individually when they are so close together. But in this particular system, called J0749+2255, both black holes were on a feeding frenzy, devouring gas and dust that became heated at such high temperatures, the duo produced a massive fireworks show. This activity is called a quasar, a phenomenon that happens when black holes emit an enormous amount of light across the electromagnetic spectrum as they feast.

 

J0749+2255 is highly unusual because the system has not one, but two quasars that are active at the same time, and are close enough that they will eventually merge.

HUBBLE SEES POSSIBLE RUNAWAY BLACK HOLE CREATING A TRAIL OF STARS

Release ID: 2023-010

 

This illustration shows a black field speckled with white, yellow and red galaxies. A black hole near the bottom left corner of the image plows through space, leaving a diagonal trail of newborn stars stretching back to the black hole’s parent galaxy in the upper right corner. The black hole is represented by a black half-sphere. It is encircled by an elongated disk of material compressed on the lower left side and trailing off on the upper right side. The material closest to the black hole appears pink, white and streaky. Beyond this, the leading edge of the disk, near the bottom, left corner, is milky violet. The disk trails off behind the black hole, becoming black. Beyond the disk, a diagonal "contrail" of blue and pink stars extends toward the blue-and-pink parent galaxy. The bridge of stars trails off, becoming narrower as it approaches the galaxy. For more details, read the Extended Text Description.

SUMMARY

 

A BIZARRE 200,000-LIGHT-YEAR-LONG BRIDGE LINKS A GALAXY TO ITS ESCAPING BLACK HOLE

The universe is so capricious that even the slightest things that might go unnoticed could have profound implications. That's what happened to Yale astronomer Pieter van Dokkum when he was looking through Hubble Space Telescope images and noticed a suspected blemish that looked like a scratch on photographic film. For Hubble's electronic cameras, cosmic rays skimming along the detector look like "scratches." But once spectroscopy was done on the oddball streak van Dokkum realized it was really a 200,000-light-year-long chain of young blue stars located over halfway across the universe! van Dokkum and his colleagues believe that it stretches between a runaway monster back hole and the galaxy it was ejected from. The black hole must be compressing gas along its wake, which condenses to form stars. Nothing like it has ever been seen anywhere else in the universe before.

WEBB REVEALS NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN DETAILS IN CASSIOPEIA A

NEWS RELEASES

April 07, 2023 10:00AM (EDT) Release ID: 2023-121

 

Glowing dust and elements display complex structures that are challenging for scientists to explain.

The explosion of a star is a dramatic event, but the remains that the star leaves behind can be even more dramatic. A new mid-infrared image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope provides one stunning example. It shows the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A), created by a stellar explosion 340 years ago from Earth's perspective. The image displays vivid colors and intricate structures begging to be examined more closely. Cas A is the youngest known remnant from an exploding, massive star in our galaxy, offering astronomers an opportunity to perform stellar forensics to understand the star’s death.

A roughly square image is rotated clockwise about 45 degrees, with solid black in the corners on the top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right. Within the image is a circular-shaped nebula with complex structure. On the circle’s exterior, particularly at the top and left of the image, lie curtains of material glowing orange. Interior to this outer shell lies a ring of mottled filaments of bright pink studded with clumps and knots. At center right, a greenish loop extends from the right side of the ring into the central cavity. Translucent wisps of blue, green, and red appear throughout the image.

A Dazzling Display of Star Birth Captured in Infrared

 

A stunning smash-up of two spiral galaxies shines in infrared with the light of more than a trillion suns. Collectively called Arp 220, the colliding galaxies ignited a tremendous burst of star birth. Each of the combining galactic cores is encircled by a rotating, star-forming ring blasting out the glaring light that Webb captured in infrared. This brilliant light creates a prominent, spiked, starburst feature...

 

On the outskirts of this merger, Webb reveals faint tidal tails, or material drawn off the galaxies by gravity, represented in blue — evidence of the galactic dance that is occurring. Organic material represented in reddish-orange appears in streams and filaments across Arp 220

Webb Reveals Early-Universe Prequel to Huge Galaxy Cluster

Various multi-color galaxies on a black background, with specific close-ups of 7 faint red galaxies in a column on right

The seven galaxies highlighted in this James Webb Space Telescope image have been confirmed to be at a distance that astronomers refer to as redshift 7.9, which correlates to 650 million years after the big bang. This makes them the earliest galaxies yet to be spectroscopically confirmed as part of a developing cluster.

Every giant was once a baby, though you may never have seen them at that stage of their development. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has begun to shed light on formative years in the history of the universe that have thus far been beyond reach: the formation and assembly of galaxies. For the first time, a protocluster of seven galaxies has been confirmed at a distance that astronomers refer to as redshift 7.9, or a mere 650 million years after the big bang. Based on the data collected, astronomers calculated the nascent cluster’s future development, finding that it will likely grow in size and mass to resemble the Coma Cluster, a monster of the modern universe.

 

“This is a very special, unique site of accelerated galaxy evolution, and Webb gave us the unprecedented ability to measure the velocities of these seven galaxies and confidently confirm that they are bound together in a protocluster,” said Takahiro Morishita of IPAC-California Institute of Technology, the lead author of the study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.

Nearby Planetary System Seen in Breathtaking Detail

 

A new Webb Space Telescope image of the bright, nearby star Fomalhaut reveals its planetary system with details never seen before, including nested concentric rings of dust. These belts most likely are carved by the gravitational forces produced by embedded, unseen planets. Similarly, inside our solar system Jupiter corrals the asteroid belt of leftover debris that lies between us and the giant planet. Astronomers first discovered Fomalhaut’s disk in 1983. But there has never been a view as spectacular – or as revealing – as Webb’s.

Webb telescope just stared into the heart of a fascinating galaxy.

 

A delicate tracery of dust and bright star clusters threads across this image from the James Webb Space Telescope. The bright tendrils of gas and stars belong to the barred spiral galaxy NGC 5068, whose bright central bar is visible in the upper left of this image – a composite from two of Webb’s instruments. NASA Administrator Bill Nelson revealed the image Friday during an event with students at the Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw, Poland.
