A neutron star merger is the stellar collision of neutron stars. When two neutron stars fall into mutual orbit, they gradually spiral inward due to the loss of energy emitted as gravitational …

2023年10月24日 · When neutron stars collide, heavy elements like gold can be forged in the extremely violent aftermath. But what else can 3D simulations of the event show us?

2023年7月10日 · Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have traced an incredibly bright gamma-ray burst (GRB) back to its source, a violent collision between two …

2021年12月11日 · Two neutron stars begin to merge in this illustration, blasting a jet of high-speed particles and producing a cloud of debris. These gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the …

2021年10月25日 · The detectors picked up gravitational waves, or ripples through space-time, that originated 130 million light years from Earth, from a collision between two neutron stars — …

2024年6月18日 · New simulations of binary neutron star mergers show that hot neutrinos created at the interface of the merging stars are briefly trapped and remain out of equilibrium with the …

2024年3月15日 · The collision of two neutron stars around 130 million light-years from Earth, and the unique physics this merger created, may have shed new light on dark matter.

2017年10月16日 · For the first time ever, on August 17, 2017, astronomers detected the collision of two neutron stars. Not satisfied with that, they caught the cosmic smashup using both …

2024年6月18日 · New simulations show that hot neutrinos created at the interface of merging binary neutron stars are briefy trapped and remain out of equilibrium with the cold cores of the …

2018年7月2日 · Nearly 130 million light-years away from Earth, two neutron stars merged. These crushed, leftover cores of massive stars orbited around each other hundreds of times a …
