    Episode 34 - The cosmic web, the ancient Milky Way, and planets around small stars

    13/04/2026 | 28 min
    In this episode, Nicole and Payel discuss a stellar system located towards the Galactic bulge, the structure of filaments in the cosmic web, the homogeneity of the chemical compositions of exoplanets born in the same disc, and the possibility of water-rich hot super Earths.
    Check out the papers below:
    The multi-age stellar populations of Terzan 5 as revealed by JWST Giorga Zullo et al.
    Universal Dark-matter Density Profiles of Cosmic Filaments Peng Xu et al.
    A Chemical Mismatch Between Young Stars and Their Inner Disks Diogo Souto et al.
    Super-Earth masses and stellar abundances from NIRPS reveal tentative evidence for water-rich formation around M dwarfs Drew Weisserman et al.

    Episode 33 - Bananas, blueberries, planet eating stars and the fate of the Milky Way

    30/03/2026 | 32 min
    In this episode, Michelle and Payel delve into the story of UV bright galaxies at high redshifts, hints of population III stars, black hole binaries, planet eating stars, pulsars in Omega Centauri and whether or not the Milky Way and Andromeda will merge.

    Episode 32 - Ancient star clusters and growing black holes

    16/03/2026 | 31 min
    In this episode, Michelle and Nicole were on-theme with their paper choices. They discuss whether and how stars from ancient globular clusters populate the stellar halo of the Milky Way, and look into research on growing massive black hole seeds in the smallest dwarf galaxies.

    02/03/2026 | 32 min
    In this episode, Michelle and Payel discuss the latest theories of little red dot formation, bursty star formation at high redshift, triple-double radio galaxies, where asteroids like Apophis come from, and how likely life might be around massive stars.

    Episode 30 - Direct collapse black holes, nuclear stellar discs, and machine learning merger histories

    16/02/2026 | 27 min
    In this episode, Payel and Nicole delve into more JWST discoveries and the frontier of machine learning in astronomy - an ultra-deep view of the cosmic web, machine-learning deep images to look for mergers, a direct collapse black hole explanation to Little Red Dots, machine-learning the Milky Way to reveal complex star formation histories of accreted systems, and the earliest nuclear stellar disc observed to date. Check out the papers below.
    An ultra-high-resolution map of (dark) matter - Diana Scognamiglio et al.
    Convolutional Neural Networks for classifying galaxy mergers: Can faint tidal features aid in classifying mergers? - Yeonkyung Lee et al.
    The Little Red Dots Are Direct Collapse Black Holes - Fabio Pacucci et al.
    Two faces of Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus: Mining the chemical abundance space with graph attention networks - Milan Quandt-Rodriguez et al.
    A nuclear disc at Cosmic Noon: evidence of early bar-driven galaxy evolution - Zoe A. Le Conte et al.
