... Gravitational wave search provides insights into galaxy evolution and mergers . ... galaxies . ... The Hubble Space Telescope found a galaxy that was completely formed within 480 million years of the Big Bang. How could gas and dust clouds condense into stars and organize themselves via gravity into an entire galaxy in less time than it takes the Milky Way to make two rotations? ... Galaxies like the Milky Way indeed could not have formed as a unit at such an early era after the Big Bang. ...

... I present results from several seasons of photometric observations of X--ray sources in the Orion OB1a and OB1b star formation regions. The initial goal was to measure the rotational periods of several dozen pre--main sequence (PMS) stars. ... Infrared and optical data confirm that 90% of the X--ray sources are PMS and about 10% of the PMS stars may have disks. ... I find rotation periods for five stars at confidence of greater than 99.9/ greater than 99/ at much lower confidence. ...
