I spend the days looking at stars. For work @ESO | ex-@esascience & @stsci | Leading the #WANDA team @ERC_research | A few kids call me papà | Views are my own.
Is it a comet? ☄️ Is it a spaceship? 🛸 Neither of those! This is a young star nestled in the Orion Nebula, with a rather unusual shape. Dive in to uncover the cause behind its appearance: eso.org/public/images/… 📷 ESO/M.-L. Aru et al.
Do you want to feel small? Check out this drone video of ESO's Extremely Large Telescope. Look how tiny those engineers look compared to the massive cell that will hold the #ELT 39 m mirror! 1/ #ELTprogress 📹 ACe/Cimolai
And a fantastic day two as well. Tomorrow we have a day at the @RoyalAstroSoc for group discussions and collaborative work
We congratulate Tom Ray — Senior Professor and Director of Cosmic Physics @DIAS_Dublin in Ireland — on his election as the next president of ESO’s main governing body, the Council. 1/ Read more: eso.org/public/announc… 📷 ESO/A. Russell
🚨 New paper day🚨 from the #WANDA @ERC_Research group, using data from @ESO and @almaobs Link: arxiv.org/abs/2309.05651 We test the impact of external photoevaporation (EP) in the sigma-Orionis cluster by conducting the first large-scale survey with X-Shooter and ALMA. 1/6
We have our newest "Astro Plot of the Week" - congratulations! (quick correction: it is from the paper by Haworth et al.) And keep them coming - astro plots are the best plots!
Pick one: - Plot from Zingale et al.(arxiv.org/abs/2309.01802) - Plot from Havorth et al. (arxiv.org/abs/2308.12342) Poll open for two days, spread the word! All promotion, including "shameless self-promotion" is not just allowed, it's encouraged! 😀
