Does Cold-Flow Accretion Drive Star-Formation in the Local Universe?
Numerical simulations of galaxy formation predict direct gas accretion from the cosmic web to be the main mode of disk galaxy formation. However, observational...
Equipartition of energy between relativistic particles and magnetic field is known to be consistent with observations in most of the large size (hundreds of kpc...
It was recently proposed that the Galactic binary system LB-1 hosts an ~8+70 solar mass B-star+black hole (BH) wide binary that is X-ray quiet, strongly...
