An asteroid hitting a neutron star could release enough energy to power humanity for 100 million years, more than enough to ...

Researchers find evidence of superfluidity in low-density neutron matter by using highly flexible neural-network ...

Extreme stars may possess mountains similar to those found on moons in our solar system, potentially creating detectable ...

Gamma rays emerging from neutron stars at the hearts of supernova explosions could solve the mystery of dark matter — in just ...

When a star dies in a supernova, one possible outcome is for the remains to become a neutron star. Inside a neutron star, the ...

Every now and then, astronomers will detect an odd kind of radio signal. So powerful it can outshine a galaxy, but lasting ...

Core package to analyze gravitational-wave data, find signals, and study their parameters. This package was used in the first direct detection of gravitational waves (GW150914), and is used in the ...

Neutron stars possess a superfluid core where neutrons flow without resistance. Scientists traditionally relied on complex ...

Neutron stars represent one of the final evolutionary stages of a massive star, forming when stars with at least eight times the mass of the Sun run out of fuel for nuclear fusion. An isolated ...

It's not science fiction: Scientists have discovered a neutron star that spins faster than any blender humans have ever made. In a recently published study, scientists discovered that the 4U 1820 ...

Astronomers pinpointed the source of the signal to a low mass star, but it can't generate that much energy on its own.

Enigmatic phenomena called fast radio bursts might be caused by interstellar objects colliding with highly magnetised neutron ...
