Astronomers have found 11 unexpectedly cold hydrogen clouds hiding in the superheated turbulence of the Fermi Bubbles, in a ...
The Fermi bubbles were discovered in 2010 by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The two orbs form an hourglass structure ...
Readings from Green Bank Telescope detect cloud made of cold hydrogen gas inside bubbles of superheated plasma.
A surprising discovery at the heart of the Milky Way is forcing scientists to rethink how massive structures called Fermi ...
"The Fermi bubbles are enormous structures of hot gas that extend above and below the disk of the Milky Way, reaching about 25,000 light years in each direction from the galaxy's center ...
Researchers have found clouds of cold gas embedded deep within larger, superheated gas clouds—or Fermi bubbles—at the Milky Way's center. The finding challenges current models of Fermi bubble ...
Giant bubbles of expanding gas that surround the Milky Way have been seen in visible light for the first time. The gas’s motion shifts the light’s wavelength, as depicted in this illustration.
The Fermi Bubbles are two enormous outflows of high-energy gas that emanate from the Milky Way and the finding refines our understanding of the properties of these mysterious blobs.
The Fermi bubbles are giant blobs of plasma, tens of thousands of light-years tall, that extend on either side of the Milky Way’s galactic disk. When the bubbles were discovered in 2010, ...
There are swooping tendrils of energy visible only in radio wavelengths, hourglass-shaped scars of X-ray light and — towering over it all — the mysterious Fermi Bubbles.
Previous research has suggested that the Fermi bubbles were produced by the Milky Way’s supermassive black hole, Sagittarius A*. Sagittarius A*, the Galactic Center of the Milky Way, was ...
A digram showing where the Fermi Bubbles (red) overlap with the hourglass-shaped X-ray structures (black) at the galaxy's center. The edges of the two structures seem perfectly aligned, the ...
