Probing stellar initial mass function with CNO isotopes
All measurements of cosmic star formation must assume the stellar initial mass function (IMF) to extrapolate from the star-formation rate (SFR) measured for massive stars to the total SFR. Traditional...

Discovering other Earths while sustaining our unique home in the Cosmos
Observations show that exoplanets are ubiquitous. For the first time, we have the technological capability to discover planets with similar bulk properties to Earth by monitoring the radial-velocity o...
