IceCube Traces High-Energy Neutrino to Distant Starburst Galaxy
Scientists have identified the source of a high-energy neutrino detected by IceCube in 2021. The particle originated from a distant starburst galaxy known as Shadow Blaster, suggesting that intensely star-forming galaxies can act as powerful cosmic accelerators without relying on active black holes.

Hubble Telescope Captures NGC 4536, a Starburst Galaxy with Intense Star Formation
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured a striking image of NGC 4536, a starburst galaxy 50 million light-years away in the Virgo constellation. The galaxy’s sweeping spiral arms are filled with young blue star clusters and ionized hydrogen gas, indicating rapid star formation. Astronomers believe its bar-like structure channels gas toward t...

Why Do Some Galaxies 'Burst'
To help understand why some galaxies "burst" while others do not, an international team of astronomers have dissected a cluster of star-forming clouds at the heart of NGC 253, one of the nearest starburst galaxies to the Milky Way.
