Astronomers set that halo (accumulation of stars out of basic disk) of giant galaxy Messier 87 it is offcut: it ends with far before, than theory predicts. About it reported in a press-release on the site of the European south observatory (ESO) the telescopes of which were used by scientific. The diameter of halo makes about million light years. The article of astrophysics will appear in a magazine Astronomy and Astrophysics.v scopes of research scientists
looked after a galactic accumulation which is located in the distance 50 million light years from Earth in constellation of Virgo. A few hundred galaxies are concentrated in this region of space, including large elliptic, to which behaves Messier 87.v details,
researchers were interested by planetary fogs – accumulations of the ionized gas round white hop-o’-my-thumbs which are the result of upcast of external shell by a red giant on the last of peat-time of development of stars of middle mass. These fogs are comfortable for
supervisions allow to get information about motion of stars in the remote regions of space. Looking after fogs was conducted through a spectorgraph FLAMES, set on a telescope VLT.v a present tense scientists can not explain, that cut a halo Messier 87. On
this account for them is present a few hypotheses. In obedience to one the absence of stars is conditioned by co-operating with other galaxies of accumulation. In obedience to other, a dark matter which on modern presentations is guilty, the galactic fills a halo.Except for it
scientists set that Messier 87 in the future will run into the neighbour – by a galaxy Messier 86. This event must happen in the nearest milliard of years, passes Lenta.ru. Region of sky, which was looked after by astronomers. Photo from a site ESO
