‘Stellar rotation’: Supercomputers expose the hidden mixing engine inside red giants

Supercomputer simulations have helped astronomers solve a decades-old mystery about red giant stars. Researchers say stellar ...

Supercomputer simulations reveal rotation drives chemical mixing in red giant stars

Advances in supercomputing have made solving a long‐standing astronomical conundrum possible: How can we explain the changes in the chemical composition at the surface of red giant stars as they ...

3D method can accurately measure gravity in wide binary stars, as demonstrated by pilot study

Since the third Gaia data release in 2022, wide binary stars with separation greater than several thousand astronomical units have been intensely investigated across the world, to probe the nature of ...
