The Sun’s differential rotation pattern has puzzled scientists for decades: while the poles rotate with a period of approximately 34 days, mid-latitudes rotate faster and the equatorial region ...
These motions were measured by analyzing 10 years of observations from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Using computer models, the scientists have shown that the newly discovered oscillations ...
The study, which observed a periodic wobble in the anti-tail jet of 3I/ATLAS during July and August 2025, indicates that the ...
A comet's orbital period is fundamentally independent of its own mass, relying instead on orbital dimensions and the central star's mass. However, outgassing—the escape of gas and dust from a ...
Astronomers have found that the rotational profile of a nearby star, V889 Herculis, differs considerably from that of the Sun. The observation provides insights into the fundamental stellar ...
