Sentences with phrase «resolution images of star»

Not exact matches

This image combines a total of 296 separate individual datasets from the ALMA and IRAM telescopes, making it one of the largest high - resolution mosaics of a star formation region produced so far at millimetre wavelengths [1].

(In the image above the more distant quasar HE 1104 - 1805 is seen as the two larger images on either side of the smaller yet closer lens galaxy [WKK93] G.) The stars in that lens galaxy then act like ultra-high resolution telescopes (see the NASA video).

Combining radio and infrared observations, researchers like Goodman and Arce created high - resolution, multiwavelength images of entire star - forming clouds.

This sequence of low - resolution telescope images (the best that are available) shows an asteroid discovered in 2008 as a tiny dot (with an arrow pointing toward it) as it moves across the sky against a background of stars.

This image combines a total of 296 separate individual data sets from the ALMA and IRAM telescopes, making it one of the largest high - resolution mosaics of a star formation region produced so far at millimeter wavelengths.

The list of accomplishments is far too large to fit within one article, but they include: the first search for extraterrestrial intelligence; creation of the Drake equation; discovery of flat galactic rotation curves; first pulsar discovered in a supernova remnant; first organic polyatomic molecule detected in interstellar space; black hole detected at the center of the Milky Way; determination of the Tully - Fisher relationship; detection of the first interstellar anion; measurement of the most massive neutron star known; first high angular resolution image of the Sunyaev - Zel» Dovich Effect; discovery of only known millisecond pulsar in a stellar triple system; discovery of pebble - sized proto - planets in Orion, and the first detection of a chiral molecule in space.

Abstract: We explore the multiplicity of exoplanet host stars with high - resolution images obtained with VLT / SPHERE.

While recent observations have found such disks surrounding the baby - twin stars, named «circumbinary disks», those observations could not image the structures and gas motions of the disks to feed materials to the binary, because of the insufficient imaging resolution and sensitivity.

Beyond our own galaxy, band 3 can be used to image molecules in nearby galaxies at high resolution, to probe the cold interstellar medium of galaxies, and to peer into dust - obscured galaxies to observe star formation.

To validate candidate planets identified by K2, the researchers obtained high - resolution images of the planet - hosting stars from Keck Observatory's near infrared camera (NIRC2), the Gemini and Large Binocular Telescope (among others) as well as high - resolution optical spectroscopy using Keck Observatory's high resolution spectrograph (HIRES) instrument and the AUtomated Planet Finder.

To validate candidate planets identified by K2, the researchers obtained high - resolution images of the planet - hosting stars as well as high - resolution optical spectroscopy data.

Directed by Stephen van Vuuren and narrated by LeVar Burton of Star Trek fame, In Saturn's Rings is a large - format look at NASA's Cassini mission to Saturn, made using over 7.5 million real high - resolution images of the planet, its moons, and other astronomical objects, carefully assembled and presented using classical multi-plane animation techniques.
