When an electron travels through a polar crystalline solid, its negative charge attracts the positively charged atomic cores, causing the surrounding crystal lattice to deform. The electron and ...
An international team of astronomers has discovered a distant planetary system that challenges long-standing theories of how planets form. Across our galaxy, astronomers routinely observe a ...
LHS 1903 flips rock and gas on their heads, hinting that late-born planets can rewrite the rules around common red dwarfs for now.
Researchers have developed a new model to explain the formation of giant planets such as Jupiter, which furnishes deeper insights into the processes of planet formation and could expand our ...
Astronomers have uncovered a distant planetary system that flips a long-standing rule of planet formation on its head. Around the small red dwarf star LHS 1903, scientists expected to find rocky ...
The discovery overturns traditional models that predicted gas giants in outer orbits and suggests planets can form in gas-poor environments.
Astronomers say a newly discovered solar system about 116 light years from Earth is challenging long held ideas about how planets form.According to CNN, researchers using telescopes from NASA ...
