So cool to hear @AstroLeConte on @BBCRadio4 talking about our paper published today on @RAS_Journals! 😃 Star bars are all the rage! durham.ac.uk/news-events/lat… with @astroferreira @conselice @astronomacamila Taehyun Kim @astrojustus @astro_francesca Lia Athanassoula and @NatAdAstra

.@AstroLeConte and fellow @DurhamPhysics astronomers used the James #Webb Space Telescope to look back more than ten billion years in time and saw that the #Universe’s early #galaxies developed much faster than previously thought! 👉 brnw.ch/21wJ7to

Are you an early career researcher interested in bars (galactic ones✨)? Then there's a Heraeus-EAS workshop in September 2024 just for you! Deadline to apply is 30th of April (selected applicants will have their local expenses fully covered!): indico.ph.tum.de/event/7498/

Our paper on the optical morphologies of galaxies up to z~6.5 through visual classifications in CEERS is now published in ApJ. The NIR/IR JWST capabilities reveal that the structure of these galaxies have a lot in common to the ones in our local universe.

A special week in the life of an astrophysicist: great memories from @drbecky_ at the #galbars23 conference in Granada 😍 galactic bars are the best!! youtu.be/t8HPczb2v1E

The last major conference on bars in galaxies was 10 years ago, so you don't want to miss this! Submit your abstract by tomorrow at galacticbars2023.com/
Galactic bars: driving and decoding galaxy evolution

We have unveiled our galaxy’s black hole! Here is the first-ever image of the black hole at the center of our Milky Way galaxy, Sagittarius A*, thanks to the incredible work of the @ehtelescope team. #OurBlackHole s.si.edu/3Lc1d1M

ALT Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, appears as an orange donut-like structure on a black background. Glowing gas orbiting around the black hole reveals a telltale signature: a dark central region (called a “shadow”) surrounded by a bright ring-like structure.

Excited to announce I've accepted a PhD offer!! I will be going to @OfficialUoM @jodrellbank to study the first galaxies and stars with @conselice using @NASAWebb @ESA_Webb!
Small adjustments, major progress!
Having completed 2 more mirror alignment steps, #NASAWebb’s optical performance will be able to meet or exceed its science goals. Now that’s good optics! 😉 go.nasa.gov/3KMV1gW #UnfoldTheUniverse
Curious about this image? Thread ⬇️

Today, I was supposed to be in Pittsburgh to present recent highlights from @eROSITA_SRG at #HEAD19. Unfortunately, I will have to do it from my quarantine at home, while recovering from covid. But don't miss our special session with @dresrabulbul, @KirpalNandra and Joern Wilms
