Using 11 years of spectroscopic data from Kodaikanal Solar Observatory, Indian researchers mapped Sun’s magnetic activity across latitudes, revealing hemispheric asymmetries and sunspot correlations. The findings refine solar dynamo models, aid space-weather forecasting, and may support climate research
Astronomers at the Indian Institute of Astrophysics have discovered that radiation and jets from supermassive black holes suppress star formation in galaxies. Studying 538 active galactic nuclei using optical and radio data, the team confirmed black hole activity regulates galactic evolution and growth
A rare total lunar eclipse, popularly known as a 'Blood Moon', mesmerised viewers across India on Sunday night, with the moon turning coppery red for over 80 minutes. Despite cloudy skies in parts of the country, the Indian Institute of Astrophysics live-streamed the event from its campuses.
