Astronomers observe gas re-accretion using ALMA data

Scientists have leveraged data gathered using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in a new study. The information gathered suggests that previously displaced gases can re-accrete onto galaxies. That process can slow down the process of the galaxy dying from ram pressure stripping and could create unique structures more resistant to its effects. Researcher William Cramer says that much of …
