An international team of astrophysicists from China and Australia has for the first time determined how massive neutron stars ...

For the first time, scientists have directly measured a weak r-process reaction using a radioactive ion beam, shedding light ...

Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for ...

In 2015, astrophysicists discovered a system consisting of two compact stars orbiting each other: a pulsar (i.e., a highly ...

A research team led by McGill identifies neutron stars as the likely source of fast radio bursts, one of the universe's most ...

The team tracked the signal back to a strange binary system containing a dead star or " white dwarf " and a red dwarf stellar ...

A white dwarf and a red dwarf star have been discovered closely orbiting each other emitting radio pulses every two hours.

Astronomers say they have traced a mysterious pulsing in the Milky Way to a surprising source: a dead star locked in a dance ...

The Antennae Galaxies are filled with black holes and neutron stars, speeding up the process of star formation and change. Saturn's rings, first observed by Galileo 400 years ago, have since become ...

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 ...
