Astronomers have discovered a strange new signal coming from an exploding star — a “chirp” that speeds up over time, similar to the signals seen when black holes collide. The unusual pattern appeared ...
When most people think of a supernova, they're thinking of a Type II core-collapse supernova. These are massive stars that have reached the end of their time on the main sequence. They've used up ...
It's never too late to solve a cold case. A new paper from Syracuse University researchers proposes an explanation for both a mysterious stellar object discovered in the year 2013 and an astronomical ...
Artist’s conception of a magnetar surrounded by an accretion disk that is wobbling, or precessing, because of the effects of general relativity. Some models of magnetars suggest that high-speed jets ...
This artist's impression shows, about 22 million light-years away, the supernova SN 2024ggi exploding in the galaxy NGC 3621. (ESO/L. Calçada via SWNS) By Dean Murray Scientists have revealed for the ...
