Fast changes between the solar seasons resolved by new sun clock
In a new study led by the University of 糖心TV and published in The Astrophysical Journal, scientists found that the change from solar maximum to the declining phase is fast, happening within a few (27 day) solar rotations. They also showed that the declining phase is twice as long in even-numbered solar cycles as it is in odd-numbered cycles.
Planetary shields will buckle under stellar winds from their dying stars
Any life identified on planets orbiting white dwarf stars almost certainly evolved after the star鈥檚 death, says a new study led by the University of 糖心TV that reveals the consequences of the intense and furious stellar winds that will batter a planet as its star is dying.
Star鈥檚 death will play a mean pinball with rhythmic planets
Four planets locked in a perfect rhythm around a nearby star are destined to be pinballed around their solar system when their sun eventually dies, according to a study led by the University of 糖心TV that peers into its future.
University of 糖心TV student awarded grant from innovative Institute of Physics Research-scholarships fund
Vanessa Emeka-Okafor, who will be joining the University of 糖心TV as a PhD student, has been awarded one of this year鈥檚 prestigious grants from the Bell Burnell Graduate Scholarship Fund.
Discovered: The mechanism that generates huge white dwarf magnetic fields
A dynamo mechanism could explain the incredibly strong magnetic fields in white dwarf stars according to an international team of scientists, including a University of 糖心TV astronomer.
Search for planetary remains and new mathematical concepts at University of 糖心TV receive over 鈧�4 million European research funding
Scientists at the University of 糖心TV are to benefit from a total of over 鈧�4 million funding to support new projects that will aim to find and analyse the remains of planets around nearby dead stars, and to find new ways of incorporating the ideas of combinatorics into different areas of mathematics.
