Young stellar objects: The source of gas emission around Herbig Ae/Be stars (EurekAlert!)
( Astronomy & Astrophysics ) This week, Astronomy & Astrophysics is publishing new high-resolution observations of the gas component surrounding six young stars with the AMBER/VLTI instrument. Astronomers were able to measure the spatial distribution of the hydrogen and CO gas emission in the inner disks around six Herbig Ae/Be stars. They found that the gas emission can clearly trace the infall ...

Young stellar objects: The source of gas emission around Herbig Ae/Be stars (PhysOrg)
This week, Astronomy & Astrophysics is publishing new observations with AMBER/VLTI of the gas component in the vicinity of young stars. An international team of astronomers led by E. Tatulli (Grenoble, France) and S. Kraus (Bonn, Germany) used the unique capability of the VLT near-infrared interferometer, coupled with spectroscopy, to probe the gaseous environment of Herbig Ae/Be stars. These ...

Scientists To Explore Chemical Reactions In Extreme Conditions (Medical News Today)
A new research center combining the tools of chemistry and astronomy will use the unique laboratory of interstellar space to free the study of basic chemistry from the restrictive bonds of Earth. The Center for Chemistry of the Universe will allow scientists to explore new types of chemical reactions that occur under the extreme conditions of space.

Queen + Paul Rodgers "The Cosmos Rocks" (The Japan Times)
Ever since Freddie Mercury left us for a better place, guitarist-come- scientist Brian May has taken it upon himself to throw his weight around as the new demigod leader of Queen in all its myriad bastardized forms. And who can blame him — if the real Queen let you play the National Anthem on the top of her house (as he did in 2002), it would probably go to your head, too. On the band's latest ...
