But occasional dense concentrations are found. The galaxies in these “Compact Groups” show dramatic differences in the way they evolve and ...

... The Sun is a star just like any other. We see stars as shiny dots because they are very far away from us. From Earth, what can we find out about stars? At first glance, we can see that stars’ colour is one of their properties. The hotter a star’s surface is, the bluer it will be. And the coldest, th ...

Astronomical spectroscopy



Astronomical spectroscopy is the study of astronomy using the techniques of spectroscopy to measure the spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, including visible light, which radiates from stars and other hot celestial objects. Spectroscopy can be used to derive many properties of distant stars and galaxies, such as their chemical composition, temperature, density, mass, distance, luminosity, and relative motion using Doppler shift measurements.
