As the collapsed core of a massive star, a neutron star is a small but incredibly dense object, packing up to three times the mass of our sun into a small volume. Models predict that neutron stars are ...
Neutron stars, these cosmic remnants resulting from the catastrophic explosion of massive stars, represent one of the most ...
"In these environments of neutron stars, the magnetic fields are really at the limits of what the universe can produce." When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...
Astronomers observed one of the fastest-spinning objects ever seen in the universe - and it is a neutron star. The researchers, from the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), made the observation in ...
Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for a process that had previously only been theorised. The study provides new ...
Science Division Dean Bryan Gaensler. An international team of scientists led by McGill University researchers has provided the clearest evidence yet that some fast radio bursts (FRBs)—enigmatic, ...
"This will help us understand how the jets are launched from all objects, even the supermassive black holes that reside at the centers of galaxies." When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...
An asteroid hitting a neutron star could release enough energy to power humanity for 100 million years, more than enough to explain fast radio bursts. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...
Intense gravitational lensing means you’d be able to see much more of a neutron star standing on its surface than you would ...
Launching Neutron Star as a sub reading mode for the redesign was a bit of an experiment. Now that it's been live for a week+ (and the new more dense List view is live) we'd love to start gathering ...
