天文学的发展,持久的动力来自观测,特别是突破性的新发现。观测天文学目前已经从刻画静态宇宙发展到认识动态宇宙,通过多波段、时域监测来揭示宇宙中各类天体的变化并发现和探索各类新天体、新现象。时域天文学已然...
Recent ground based observations at various wavelengths reveal a variety of protoplanetary disk structures. These disk structures may help us to constrain the planet formation process. We apply the pl...
The study of GRBs has been an active field in astrophysics over the years, which has undergone a significant boost in interest with the joint detection of GW170817/GRB 170817A and several new types of...
Planets form from discs of material around young (oduced in clusters. There is a growing realisation that planet-forming discs are not isolated systems and instead are influenced by the gravitational ...
Kinetic field theory (KFT) has been developed in recent years to study structure formation in ensembles of classical particles in and out of equilibrium. In a straightforward manner, KFT can be specia...
Quenched massive spiral galaxies have attracted great attention recently, as more data is available to constrain their environment and cold gas content. However, the quenching mechanism is still uncer...
Recent spatially-resolved studies have suggested that some of the correlations among global quantities (e.g., star formation rate, stellar mass, gas mass) might be an ensemble effect of local processe...
Warped accretion discs are common around black holes and stars. There is growing indirect observational evidence for warped circumstellar discs around young stars, indicated by shadows cast by the war...
With more than 4000 exoplanets found and about 2-dozens of planets with detected atmospheric chemical species, we moved from an era of discovery to a new era of exoplanet characterisation. On the othe...
