[ad_1] Geoffrey Ryan, co-author of the University of Maryland (UMD) and Joint Space-Science Institute, described the events as "cosmic look-alikes," saying, "They look alike, act the same way and come from similar …

[ad_1] Astrophysicists used all available data on the GW170817 event. Astrophysicists were able to calculate the radius of neutron stars, light and gravitational signals from the merger recorded in August 2017. The …

[ad_1] Astronomers have observed the development of the epidemic from the very first hours of its onset. Scientists first observed the formation of a dual system of neutron stars. The unusually weak …

[ad_1] The three panels represent moments before, when and after the faint supernova iPTF14gqr, visible in the middle panel, appeared in the outskirts of a spiral galaxy located 920 million light years …

[ad_1] The three panels represent the preceding moments, when and after the weak supernova iPTF14gqr, visible in the middle panel, appeared on the periphery of a spiral galaxy located 920 million light-years …

[ad_1] Just a little to the left of the leftmost part of the "W" in the constellation Cassiopeia is a binary system of a neutron star in a 27-day orbit with a …

[ad_1] According to a new study published in Nature, astronomers have detected radio jets belonging to a neutron star with a strong magnetic field. The team, led by researchers from the University …

[ad_1] Astronomers using Karl G. Jansky of the NSF's Very Large Array discovered a jet of rapidly moving material propelled outwards from a strongly magnetized neutron star. The discovery, reported in the …

[ad_1] It is not impossible: ask international researchers who have discovered an astrophysical phenomenon that they never thought possible. The group, which includes astronomer Gregory Sivakoff from the University of Alberta, has …
