When massive stars explode as supernovae, they can leave behind neutron stars. Other than black holes, these are the densest ...

An international team of astrophysicists from China and Australia has for the first time determined how massive neutron stars ...

Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for a process that had previously only been theorised. The study provides new ...

A research team led by McGill identifies neutron stars as the likely source of fast radio bursts, one of the universe's most ...

The team tracked the signal back to a strange binary system containing a dead star or " white dwarf " and a red dwarf stellar ...

In the past three years, astronomers have discovered a mysterious new type of radio source. We call these long-period ...

A white dwarf and a red dwarf star have been discovered closely orbiting each other emitting radio pulses every two hours.

A decade-long radio mystery has finally been solved: astronomers have linked repeating pulses to a white dwarf and red dwarf ...

Astronomers say they have traced a mysterious pulsing in the Milky Way to a surprising source: a dead star locked in a dance ...

Astronomers have discovered that a pair of stars—one white dwarf and one red dwarf—are sending out radio pulses every two ...

When these stars dance, they make their own music. Astronomers have tracked down the source of a mysterious radio signal from ...
