A hidden galaxy from 11 billion years ago may hold clues to the origin of high-energy cosmic neutrinos.

Using ALMA, astronomers uncovered "Shadow Blaster" - a compact, dust-obscured starburst galaxy located within the localization region of the IceCube neutrino event IC 210922A. Thanks to gravitational lensing, researchers revealed an intense, gas-rich core where extreme star formation could generate the conditions needed to produce high-energy neutrinos. While the association is not yet confirmed, the [...]

ALMA and VLA Reveal Massive Star-Forming Gas Reservoir in Galaxy from the Early Universe

Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) have uncovered a huge reservoir of cold molecular gas in the distant galaxy REBELS-25, seen just 700 million years after the Big Bang (z = 7.31). The observations reveal around 100 billion solar masses of star-forming fuel, making [...]
