LOS ANGELES, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Astronomers using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory have found a galaxy cluster that has two streams of superheated gas crossing one another, NASA said on Friday.
The galaxy appears to be losing its gas through a process known as ram pressure stripping. A galaxy is robbed of its gas and stars in a new image from the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
Astronomers have made important progress in comprehending the intricate dynamics of the galaxy cluster Zwicky 8338 (Z8338) by using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory. They found two streams of ...
Similarly, galaxy clusters are suffused inside vast haloes of dark matter, which we can detect indirectly. Scientists are also able to determine dark matter's distribution in a cluster by watching ...
