One of the best things about art is watching what it inspires in other people.

Like, say, this violinist reinterpreting Kendrick Lamar (and shifting to an A-minor chord on the relevant lyric).

Holy shit This man is soo fucking THICC!!

Susie joining the hometown choir as a tenor is real and true to me

can't stop thinking about the horrible edit that was on the radio on my way home of k@ty perry's last friday night that replaced 'then had a ménage à trois' with a repeat of the 'think we kissed but i forgot' with like no attempt to make it blend together whatsoever

[were--ralph]

i can't believe im so invested in this im literally going to freak out

fir the first time ever i have a chance of a bara artist drawing a character im obsessed with and he';s losing to the fucking grandpa from Ben 10 what is going on

[ask-good-cop-bad-cop]

Song recs?

▫️ Sorry this took us so long! We've been thinking on it all day. Here's a few for you:

Eventide- Kamelot St. James Ballroom- Alice Francis Ra Ra Rasputin- Boney M. Diggy Diggy Hole- Wind Rose Force of Suction- Bassnectar You Should Be Dancing- The Beegees Glad You Came- DSharp

▫️ Enjoy!

DSharp is amazing. He has a bunch of old videos still up from like 10 years ago where he does a bunch of silly pop covers, and I still unironically listen to his ones for Katy Perry and LMFAO. Like, they fuck so hard.

Really? Like, just from that he's amazing. I used to play violin as a kid because my parents never let me play what I wanted. It was constant classical music and I was there wanting to know how to shred like THAT. I actually love listening to Lindsey Stirling and for the longest time "The Rising Sun" (Shinsuke's theme) was the most played song on my spotify playlist. Anyway, thanks for the rec, I'm gonna have to look him up!

List 5 songs you actually listen to & then tag 10 people! I was tagged by @garden-of-mythology-and-fate-go

1) Brutus by the Buttress - I listen to this the most in 2023

2) I miss the rage by Mario Judah - 2023 was the year of rage

3) Final Warning by DSharp - this violin music makes me want to get into a fight

4) Long Ma by Nini Music - the way she uses traditional instruments to make rock music, gives me inspiration

5) Odo by the Queen Ado - Odo is slept on but its one of her best singles. That opening line "Hanpa nara K.O. fuwafuwa" translated to "Half-Ass deserves a KO" is a banger

Super-resolution imaging reveals the first step of planet formation after star birth

Identifying the formation period of planetary systems, such as our solar system, could be the beginning of the journey to discover the origin of life. The key to this is the unique substructures found in protoplanetary disks—the sites of planet formation.

A protoplanetary disk is composed of low-temperature molecular gas and dust, surrounding a protostar. If a planet exists in the disk, its gravity will gather or eject materials within the disk, forming characteristic substructures such as rings or spirals. In other words, various disk substructures can be interpreted as "messages" from the forming planets. To study these substructures in detail, high-resolution radio observations with ALMA are required.

Numerous ALMA observations of protoplanetary disks (or circumstellar disks) have been conducted so far. In particular, two ALMA large programs, DSHARP and eDisk, have revealed the detailed distribution of dust in protoplanetary disks through high-resolution observations.

The DSHARP project discovered that distinctive structures are common in circumstellar disks around 20 young stars, each exceeding 1 million years since the onset of star formation (see note below).

On the other hand, fewer distinctive structures were found by the eDisk project that investigated disks around 19 protostars in the accretion phase (the stage where mass accretion onto the star and the disk is active). This phase occurs approximately 10,000 to 100,000 years after star birth. This suggests that disks have diverse characteristics depending on the age of the star.

Here, the question is: When do substructures, the signs of planet formation, appear in disks? To find the answer, it is necessary to observe disks of a wide range of intermediate ages that have yet to be explored. However, limitations on the number of disks observable at high resolution, due to distance and observational time, make it challenging to conduct a statistically significant survey with a sufficiently large sample size.

To overcome these limitations, the research team turned to super-resolution imaging with sparse modeling. In radio astronomy, images are commonly restored based on a specific assumption to compensate for missing observation data. The imaging method employed reconstructs based on a more accurate assumption than the conventional approach, producing higher-resolution images even though the same observation data is used. The findings are published in the Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan.

PRIISM (Python module for Radio Interferometry Imaging with Sparse Modeling), the public software developed by a Japanese research team, was used in this study. The research team utilized this new imaging technique on ALMA archival data, targeting 78 disks in the Ophiuchus star-forming region, located 460 light years from the solar system.

As a result, more than half of the images produced in this study achieved a resolution over three times higher than that of the conventional method, which is comparable to that of the DSHARP and eDisk projects.

Moreover, the total number of samples in this study is nearly four times larger than that of the previous two projects, significantly improving the robustness of our statistical analysis. Among the analyzed 78 disks, 27 disks were revealed to have ring or spiral structures, 15 of which were identified for the first time in this study.

The team combined the Ophiuchus sample with those of the eDisk project to conduct a statistical analysis. As a result, they found that the characteristic disk substructures emerge in disks with radii larger than 30 astronomical units (au) during the early stage of star formation, just a few hundred thousand years after a star was born

This suggests that planets begin to form at a much earlier stage than previously believed, when the disk still possesses abundant gas and dust . In other words, planets grow together with their very young host stars.

Ayumu Shoshi says, "These findings, bridging the gap between the eDisk and DSHARP projects, were enabled by the innovative imaging that allows for both achieving high resolution and a large number of samples. While these findings only pertain to the disks in the constellation Ophiuchus, future studies of other star-forming regions will reveal whether this tendency is universal."

Note: The evolutionary stage of a protostar is estimated using the bolometric temperature around the star. The bolometric temperature is an apparent temperature derived from the total brightness of an object across all wavelengths. A higher bolometric temperature indicates a more advanced evolutionary stage, and a temperature of 650 K suggests that approximately 1 million years have passed since the birth of the star.

The resolution is shown by the white ellipse in the lower left of each panel, with a smaller ellipse indicating higher resolution.

Purple, red, and yellow markings indicate disks with characteristic structures or potential ones with substructures. A bolometric temperature of 650 K corresponds to a disk around a central star that has evolved for about 1 million years since its formation, suggesting that characteristic substructures begin to emerge at even earlier stages.

[badolmen]

like black people are present in every single fucking genre and scene and popularized and straight up created several but people are so fucking hell bent on finding every possible excuse to not engage with their music because its easier than trying to confront their own racism. like okay well if its truly just a disinterest in most rap music then surely you listen to black artists in other genres right? who am i fucking kidding. of course you dont.
