Active Galactic Nuclei and Quasars
Supermassive black holes accreting material, outflows, and the feedback on star formation Some of the most luminous and dynamic phenomena in the cosmos emerge when supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at...

Evolutionary Paths: Secular vs. Merger-Driven
How internal processes and external interactions shape a galaxy’s long-term evolution Galaxies do not remain static over billions of years; instead, they evolve through a mix of internal (secular) processes...

Irregular Galaxies: Chaos and Starbursts
Gravitational interactions, tidal forces, and intense star formation in irregular forms Not all galaxies follow the clean spiral arms or smooth elliptical contours of the Hubble “tuning fork” scheme. A...

Elliptical Galaxies: Formation and Features
How mergers and dynamical relaxation create massive, spheroidal galaxies with older stellar populations Among the universe’s diverse galaxy types, elliptical galaxies stand out for their smooth, ellipsoidal shapes, lack of...
