A survey of galaxies using the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Herschel Space Observatory has shown that only the most powerful black holes in the early Universe were able to quench the formation of stars in their host galaxies. This finding … Continue reading
Early galaxies, flowering with dramatic starbursts in the early Universe, saw the birth of new stars abruptly cut short, leaving them as massive galaxies of aging stars in the present day. The likely culprit for the sudden end to the … Continue reading
Recent results from the Herschel Space Observatory show that gas-rich galaxies in the early universe were able to create stars at an intense rate. In the recent universe, we only see such high rates of star formation when galaxies collide. However, … Continue reading
