Researchers at Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics and other institutions have used data from the Herschel Space Telescope to resolve a portion of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) into its constituent sources. Using images in the far infrared range ...
Blue Color of Quasar Accretion Disk Verified
Research led by an astronomer at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy verifies the theory regarding the color of quasar accretion disks. These disks were predicted to be blue, but due to emissions from dust clouds surrounding the disk ...
Proton-Electron Mass Constant for 6 Billion Years
Research carried out at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy has shown there has been practically no variation in the proton-electron mass ratio over the last six billion years. The research was based on studying the spectra of light ...
