Elliptisk eleganse

Dette bildet viser en mengde glitrende galakser tatt med ESOs VLT Survey Telescope, et toppmoderne 2,6 m teleskop designet for å kartlegge himmelen i synlig lys. Utseendet til de mange galaksene i bildet tillater astronomer å avdekke de mest delikate detaljene innen galaksestrukturer.

Stjernelik avslører opprinnelsen til radioaktive molekyler

Astronomer har brukt ALMA og NOEMA til å gjøre den første observasjonen av et radioaktivt molekyl i det interstellare rom. Den radioaktive delen av molekylet er en isotop av aluminium. Observasjonene avslører at isotopen ble spredt ut i rommet etter kollisjonen mellom to stjerner, som etterlot en stjernerest kjent som CK Vulpeculae. Dette er første gang det er gjort en direkte observasjon av dette grunnstoffet fra en kjent kilde. Tidligere identifikasjoner av denne isotopen er kommet fra deteksjoner av gammastråler, men deres opprinnelse har ikke vært kjent.

Første vellykkede test av Einsteins generelle relativitetsteori i nærheten av et supermassivt sort hull

Observasjoner gjort med ESOs Very Large Telescope har for første gang avslørt effekten på bevegelsen til en stjerne som passerer gjennom det ekstreme gravitasjonsfeltet nær det supermassive sorte hullet i sentrum av Melkeveien, forutsagt av Einsteins generelle relativitetsteori. Dette etterspurte resultatet representerer kulminasjonen av en 26-årig observasjonskampanje gjort med ESOs teleskoper i Chile.

Neptune from the VLT with MUSE/GALACSI Narrow Field Mode adaptive optics

Superskarpe bilder med ny adaptiv optikk på VLT

ESOs Very Large Telescope (VLT) har sett sitt første lys med en ny adaptiv optikk-modus kalt lasertomografi – og har tatt bemerkelsesverdig skarpe testbilder av planeten Neptun, stjernehoper og andre objekter. Det banebrytende MUSE-instrumentet i smalt synsfelt-modus, som samarbeider med adaptiv optikk-modulen GALACSI, kan nå bruke denne nye teknikken til å korrigere for turbulens ved forskjellige høyder i atmosfæren. Det er nå mulig å ta bilder fra bakken ved synlige bølgelengder som er skarpere enn bildene fra NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Kombinasjonen av utsøkt bildeskarphet og de spektroskopiske evnene til MUSE, vil gjøre det mulig for astronomer å studere egenskapene til astronomiske objekter i mye større detalj enn det som tidligere var mulig.

Et fargerikt kosmisk landskap

Nye observasjoner gjort med ESOs Very Large Telescope viser stjernehopen RCW 38 i all sin herlighet. Dette bildet ble tatt under testingen av HAWK-I-kameraet med det adaptive optikk-systemet GRAAL. Bildet viser RCW 38 og dens omkringliggende skyer av lyssterk glødende gass i utsøkt detalj, med mørke slynger av støv som trer gjennom den lyse kjerne av denne unge samlingen av stjerner.

Total solformørkelse på ESOs La Silla-observatorium i Chile i 2019

Den 2. juli 2019 kommer et av naturens mest imponerende fenomener til å være synlig fra ESOs La Silla-observatorium i Chile: en total solformørkelse. Da dette fenomenet er svært sjeldent – den neste solformørkelsen som er synlig fra La Silla vil inntreffe om 212 år – vil ESO organiserer en rekke observasjons- og formidlingsaktiviteter på stedet, slik at allmennheten kan oppleve denne spektakulære hendelsen. Billetter for å delta vil være tilgjengelig fra kl. 13:00 CEST/07:00 CLT fredag 13. juli 2018.

Første bekreftede bilde av nyfødt planet tatt med ESOs VLT

SPHERE, et planetjegerinstrument på ESOs Very Large Telescope, har tatt det første bekreftede bildet av en planet som er i ferd med å dannes i den støvete skiven rundt en ung stjerne. Den unge planeten lager seg en bane gjennom den skiven av gass og støv rundt den svært unge stjernen PDS 70. Dataene antyder at det er skyer i planetens atmosfære.

ESOs VLT ser at ‘Oumuamua får en boost

‘Oumuamua, det første interstellare objektet som er oppdaget i solsystemet, beveger seg vekk fra Solen raskere enn forventet. Denne uregelmessige oppførselen ble påvist av et verdensomspennende astronomisk samarbeid, inkludert ESOs Very Large Telescope i Chile. De nye resultatene antyder at ‘Oumuamua mest sannsynlig er en interstellar komet og ikke en asteroide. Oppdagelsen presenteres i tidsskriftet Nature.

VLT gjør den mest nøyaktige testen av Einsteins generelle relativitetsteori utenfor Melkeveien

Astronomer som har brukt MUSE-instrumentet på ESOs Very Large Telescope i Chile og NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, har gjort den mest presise testen av Einsteins generelle relativitetsteori utenfor Melkeveien. Den nærliggende galaksen ESO 325-G004 fungerer som en sterk gravitasjonslinse, og forvrenger lyset fra en fjern galakse som ligger bak den for å skape en Einstein-ring rundt seg. Ved å sammenligne massen til ESO 325-G004 med krumningen av rommet rundt den, fant astronomene at gravitasjonskraften på disse astronomiske lengdeskalaene oppfører seg som spådd av den generelle relativitetsteorien. Dette funnet utelukker noen alternative gravitasjonsteorier.

ALMA Discovers Trio of Infant Planets

ALMA oppdager trio av babyplaneter rundt nyfødte stjerne

To uavhengige team av astronomer har brukt ALMA til å avdekke overbevisende tegn på at tre unge planeter går i bane rundt den nyfødte stjernen HD 163296. Ved hjelp av en ny teknikk for å finne planeter, har astronomene identifisert tre forstyrrelser i den gassfylte skiven rundt den unge stjernen. Dette er det sterkeste beviset på at nydannede planeter går i bane der. Disse planetene anses som de første planetene som er oppdaget med ALMA.

Om ESON

ESOs utdannings- og formidlingsavdeling, ESO education and Public Outreach Department, har opprettet et nettverk av personer i ESO-medlemslandene som fungerer som lokale kontakter for media i forbindelse med pressemeldinger og andre nyheter ved ESO. Samtidig kan de hjelpe til med å sette media i kontakt med forskere i sitt eget land.

Mer informasjon om ESON finnes på: www.eso.org/public/outreach/eson/
