A cosmic enigma, ASKAP J1839-0756, a slow-spinning neutron star discovered using the ASKAP radio telescope, is challenging ...

Why matter dominates over antimatter in our universe has long been a major cosmic mystery to physicists. A new finding by the ...

The discovery could pave the way for more efficient production of domestic fuels, chemicals and materials. The team used ORNL ...

Previously, long radio bursts were only traced to neutron stars, the dense remnants left after a colossal stellar explosion. But the discovery, described in a study published Wednesday in the ...

Plutonium discovered at the bottom of the ocean was found to be refuse from a kilonova that exploded close to Earth 10 million years ago. Kilonovas occur when binary neutron stars spiral closer and ...

Because of this discovery, astronomers now know that neutron stars do not have the monopoly on bright radio pulses. In recent years, about 10 such radio-emitting systems have been discovered by ...

An international team of astrophysicists from China and Australia has for the first time determined how massive neutron stars are when they are born. "Understanding the birth masses of neutron ...

In 2015, astrophysicists discovered a system consisting of two compact stars orbiting each other: a pulsar (i.e., a highly magnetized rapidly rotating, light-emitting neutron star) and a so-called ...

Plastic Ice VII allows water molecules to rotate freely within a rigid crystalline structure. This phase was first predicted in 2008, but scientists have now provided solid evidence of its existence.

By Alimat Aliyeva A group of European, British, and American astronomers has discovered 34 binary white dwarf systems i ...

Lithium-6 is a crucial material for nuclear fusion reactors, but isolating it is challenging – now researchers have found a ...
