Med hjälp av bilder från ESO:s Very Large Telescope och NASA/ESA:s rymdteleskop Hubble har astronomer upptäckt aldrig tidigare sedda strukturer inuti en stoftskiva som omringar en närliggande stjärna. Snabba vågor tycks röra sig inuti skivan runt stjärnan AU Microscopii. Fenomenet liknar inte något som tidigare observerats, eller ens förutspåtts, och dess ursprung blir nu ett nytt mysterium för astronomer att utforska. Forskningsresultaten publiceras i tidsskriften Nature den 8 oktober 2015.
