Why Some Galaxies Never Puff Up: Exclusive interview with researchers from Raman Research Institute and the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER),

Scattered across the universe are galaxies that defy this structure, known as superthin galaxies—incredibly flat systems that seem to have resisted puffing up over billions of years—leading to the question: How have these cosmic blades managed to stay so impossibly slim?

A new study, conducted by researchers K Aditya of the Raman Research Institute and Arunima Banerjee of the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER), has uncovered why these galaxies remain incredibly flat and thin. In a conversation with ETV Bharat’s Sr. Journalist Dr. Anubha Jain, Dr. Arunima Banerjee and Dr. K Aditya discussed ultrathin galaxies, their formation, and other aspects of their study.
