important for astronomers because of their enormous feedback.
Not exact matches
Such 3 - D reconstructions encode

As
astronomer John Bally of the University of Colorado puts it, «Star formation is the single most
important process
for determining the fate and evolution of normal matter in the universe.»
This proximity makes it a very
important target
for astronomers, as it can be studied in far more detail than more distant systems.
By 2000 radio
astronomers had found almost all of them in various dust clouds throughout our galaxy, suggesting that the interplay between ice and gas may be one of the most
important mechanisms
for synthesizing the precursors of life.
«The
astronomers will sit around and argue endlessly; first they'll say that this isn't
important and then proceed to tell you
for three hours why they're right.»
It's
important to do so, however, because without other stars
for comparison,
astronomers can't determine whether the sun's magnetism is normal.
«
For NASA, this number — that every fifth star has a planet somewhat like Earth — is really important, because successor missions to Kepler will try to take an actual picture of a planet, and the size of the telescope they have to build depends on how close the nearest Earth - size planets are,» said Andrew Howard, astronomer with the Institute for Astronomy at the University of Hawa

The discovery of this chaotic event will be
important for advancing our understanding of classical dynamic astronomy and of how stars evolve, including possibly providing an explanation
for the production of the mysterious «brown dwarfs,» the
astronomers said.
Brian Metzger, an
astronomer at Columbia University, said that if we could confirm that plasma lenses are responsible
for the repeating FRB's erratic on - off blast cycle, «this would be telling us something
important about the environment through which the FRB is passing and thus a strong hint as to their origin.»
«The fact that these pulsars were never before detected in this highly studied area of the Galaxy shows that the GBT has outstanding capabilities and will be an
important tool
for astronomers to make very precise, very sensitive observations of the Universe.
Astronomers studying gas clouds in the famous Whirlpool Galaxy have found
important clues supporting a theory that seeks to explain how the spectacular spiral arms of galaxies can persist
for billions of years.
Because of their relative brightness, high - energy gamma and x-ray quasars have become
important probes
for astronomers studying distant reaches of the universe and its ancient past.
The modeling efforts continue to be incredibly
important because they tie our physics - based understanding of how gravitational lensing works with the observations of gravitational lensing, and they allow
astronomers to accurately search
for and study extremely distant and lensed galaxies.
Polarimetry is an
important method to investigate magnetic fields in the Universe and
astronomers eager to use ALMA
for unveiling magnetic mysteries, such as the launching mechanism of high energy jets from supermassive black holes.
Another
important aspect is that ALMA is designed not only
for astronomers but also
for planetary scientists, physicists and other scientists whose studies are associated with astronomy.
