A triple star system in which the stars all eclipse one another from our vantage point is standing out as one of the best ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising force that may help explain how binary star systems form so quickly. New supercomputer ...

NAOJ ATERUI III simulations show magnetic fields strip angular momentum from forming protostar pairs at up to 0.7 percent per ...

Nearly half of Sun-size stars are binary. According to University of Copenhagen research, planetary systems around binary stars may be very different from those around single stars. This points to new ...

Washington DC — New theoretical work shows that gas-giant planet formation can occur around binary stars in much the same way that it occurs around single stars like the Sun. The work is presented ...
