Astronomers discover fragile hydrogen clouds surviving inside the superheated Fermi Bubbles, revealing the Milky Way’s most extreme outflows are younger and more complex than ever imagined
The Massive and Distant Clusters of WISE Survey (MaDCoWS) is a catalog of >2000 massive galaxy clusters at z~1. The goal of this GBT observing program was to observe many of the most massive MaDCoWS clusters with MUSTANG2 in order to obtain a Sunyeav-Zeldovich Effect mass estimate. 26 MaDCoWS clusters were observed and the resulting […]
