XRISM discovery According to SciTech Daily, the XRISM team, while studying the Centaurus cluster, discovered that gas ...

The XRISM science team, including members from Nagoya University in Japan, has explained how a galaxy cluster maintains its heat, despite emitting X-rays that cool the hot gas at its center. The group ...

The team behind this discovery speculates that this gas could eventually become the hot, diffuse gas called the intracluster medium (ICM) that has been seen filling mature galaxy clusters.

The galaxy’s sweeping spiral arms are filled with young blue star clusters and ionized hydrogen gas, indicating rapid star formation. Astronomers believe its bar-like structure channels gas ...
