 "It is impossible to be a mathematician without being a poet in soul."
— Sofya Kovalevskaya, born 15 Jan 1850.

[From a letter to Madame Schabelskoy, quoted in S. Kovalévsky: Her Recollections of Childhood, translated by I. F. Hapgood,1895]

 The img shows the inner region of Abell 1689, an immense cluster of galaxies located 2.2 billion ly away in constellation Virgo.
Astronomers used Hubble to map the distribution of dark matter in the galaxy cluster. ➡️bit.ly/3tVdSzz

 Here is Abell 1689, with the mass distribution of the dark matter in the gravitational lens overlaid (in purple).

The mass in this lens is made up partly of normal (baryonic) matter and partly of dark matter.

 A diffuse glow of high-energy gamma rays hints at the presence of powerful cosmic accelerators, called PeVatrons, within the disk of our Galaxy.

 Many physicists believe that such #PeVatrons accelerate particles up to at least PeV energies (PeV=10^15 eV).

Possible PeVatrons include #supernova explosions, star-forming regions, & Sgr A* the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy.
