... Subject: IAA Lecture, Events at WWT and Dungannon, RIA lecture, Galway A.F., ISS . ... Supernovae come in various forms, with different causes, but in general terms theyѓЉrepresent eitherѓЉthe explosive death of a giant star, or a very violent episode in the life of a binary star pair. Visually, they are the greatest explosions we see in the universe, with the exploding star sometimes becoming as bright as the combined light of all the other hundreds of millions of stars in its parent galaxy! ...

In star-forming galaxies, dust plays a significant role in shaping the ultraviolet (UV) through infrared (IR) spectrum. ... Using three samples of galaxies observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope and our dusty radiative transfer model, we find that young stellar populations (on the order of 100 million years old) dominate the dust heating in star-forming galaxies, and old stellar populations (13 billion years old) generally contribute less than 20% of the far-IR luminosity. ...

... For a long time we've known that planets form and live around stars. ... When a star is born, any leftover gas and dust forms a disc around it, similar to Saturn's rings. Within this disc, small dust grains made of rock sometimes form. ... Now, for the first time ever astronomers have spotted solid grains in the gassy disc around a 'brown dwarf' an object that is neither a planet nor a star. ... Astronomers didn't expect to find these solid grains around brown dwarfs for a number of reasons. ...
