Neutron star mergers are collisions between neutron ... as a deeper understanding of these events could yield interesting insights into how matter behaves at extreme densities.

It is so strange it might even offer clues to the mechanism behind events known as fast radio bursts.

Detecting binary neutron star mergers is a top priority for astronomers. These rare collisions between dense stellar remnants produce gravitational waves followed by bursts of light, offering a unique ...

Scientists recently revealed astounding discoveries about neutron star masses, illuminating ways that contradict our previously accepted knowledge. The scientific discoveries create essential ...

The surprising object, dubbed SGR 0501+4516, is a magnetar, a neutron star with a powerful magnetic field. Neutron stars are the remains of dead stars that have collapsed into shriveled husks the ...

Abstract: We investigate the stochastic gravitational wave background that results from neutron star birth throughout the Universe. The neutron star birth rate, as a function of redshift, is ...

(Courtesy: MPI-IS / A Posada) A new artificial intelligence/machine learning method rapidly and accurately characterizes binary neutron star mergers based on the gravitational wave signature they ...

Abstract: Both relativistic and non-relativistic two-fluid models of neutron star cores are constructed, using the constrained variational formalism developed by Brandon Carter and co-workers. We ...

But it has been theorized that under certain conditions, the white dwarf can instead collapse into a neutron star," team member Andrew Levan of Radboud University and the University of Warwick ...

A runaway magnetar challenges the idea that all such stars are born from supernovae, hinting at a rare and exotic formation path. Credit: SciTechDaily.com Highly magnetic neutron star is wandering our ...
