Last year, astronomers observed two neutron stars collide—a crash transmitted in gravitational waves to detectors here on Earth. Represented in sound, you can hear a small upwards sweep in frequency, ...
See a pair of superheavy neutron stars collide in this simulation with gravitational wave audio. "An audible tone and a ...
We don't really know, but probably some truly bizarre physics. Neutron stars are some of the weirdest cosmic objects, and the greatest mysteries lie deep in their hearts. Neutron stars are the ...
The heaviest neutron star ever detected is shredding its companion while spinning on its axis over 700 times per second. The neutron star, known as PSR J0952-0607, was discovered in 2017 about 3,000 ...
Simulation reveals emergence of jet from binary neutron star merger followed by black hole formation
Binary neutron star mergers, cosmic collisions between two very dense stellar remnants made up predominantly of neutrons, have been the topic of numerous astrophysics studies due to their fascinating ...
Physicists have measured the “skin” of an atom for the first time and, perhaps unsurprisingly, it is extremely thin. The measurement may help us understand the properties of neutron stars. Lead-208, ...
Ask Dr. Universe: Earth’s crust couldn’t withstand weight and pressure of a fragment of neutron star
Mon., June 23, 2025 A composite image of the supernova 1E0102.2-7219 contains X-rays from Chandra (blue and purple), visible light data from VLT’s MUSE instrument (bright red), and additional data ...
