We had a visitor, Dr. Chun Wang (王春), from the Kavli Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics, Peking University on Oct. 14th. Dr Wang presented her work on 'A chemodynamical evolution study of the Galactic disc based on the LAMOST spectroscopic survey data'.The chemodynamical evolution of the Galactic disc(s) is among the hottest debating issues of the Galactic astronom...

2020年7月该论文发表于ApJ （2020, The Astrophysical Journal, 897, 162） To understand the formation and quenching processes of local massive red spiral galaxies with M* > 1010.5 M☉, we perform a statistical analysis of their spectroscopic and structural properties and compare them with elliptical and blue spiral galaxies of similar mass. The sample was selected from the stellar mass c...

北京时间 2020 年 7 月 30 日凌晨，国际科学期刊《自然》发布了天津师范大学天体物理中心参与合作的一项重大成果。依托安装于中国南极昆仑站的自主研制设备，研究团队首次测量并获得了极佳的夜间大气视宁度，证明昆仑站所在的冰穹 A 地区的光学天文观测条件优于已知的其他任何地面台址。这项研究成果确认了昆仑站有珍贵的天文观测台址资源，为我国进一步开展南极天文研究奠定了科学的基础。作为望远镜基础的 8 米高塔...
