Scientists have discovered a new way to probe the interiors of neutron stars by using gravitational waves to turn them into ...

Neutron stars represent one of the final evolutionary stages of a massive star, forming when stars with at least eight times ...

Neutron stars can have a resounding impact around ... the core remains—but it no longer produces nuclear fusion. With no outward pressure from fusion to counterbalance gravity's inward pull ...

New research indicates that matter ejected during the supernova death of a star can fall back to neutrons stars, giving rise ...

An international team of scientists has modeled the formation and evolution of the strongest magnetic fields in the universe.

For decades, fusion researchers struggled with neutron isotropy, a key indicator of scalable plasma stability. Zap Energy’s ...

The characteristic of stars, such as our sun ... of the products (3.5 MeV to alpha particle and 14.1 MeV to neutron). Three main conditions are necessary for a controlled thermonuclear fusion: The ...

In physics, the term "isotropy" means a system where the properties are the same in all directions. For fusion, neutron ...

Australian scientists have discovered a collapsed star called a neutron star that spins thousands of times slower than expected. The star, called ASKAP J1839-075, is one of a number of recent ...

When supermassive stars reach the end of their lives and explode in a supernova, the remnants form a super-dense object called a neutron star. Pulsars are neutron stars that spin rapidly ...

Advanced neutron multipliers and beryllide compounds, particularly titanium beryllide (Be 12 Ti), are gaining attention in the field of nuclear fusion due to their potential to enhance the ...

Neutron stars are created when stars with over 10 times the mass of the sun exhaust the fuel supply used for nuclear fusion at their cores. This results in the stellar core, which has over 1.4 ...
