The neutron star 4U 1820-30 is one of the fastest spinning bodies in the universe, spinning at 716 times a second and ...

Neutron stars can have a resounding impact around the universe. Scientists recently announced the first detection of gravitational waves created by two neutron stars smashing into each other.

New research uncovers how black holes inherit magnetic fields from collapsing neutron stars, explaining their powerful jets.

A irregularly shaped near spherical blue cloud with nodules extending from it Neutron stars don't always live in isolation. Some of these dead stars occupy binary systems along with a companion ...

The outward force from its fusion can no longer counteract the star's powerful gravity, and the star collapses in on itself.

Scientists think it's possible that shrouds of hypothetical particles called "axions" could surround extreme, dead stars called "neutron stars." If true, this could bring us one step closer to ...

New research in our Milky Way has revealed a neutron star that rotates around its axis at an extremely high speed. It spins 716 times per second, making it one of the fastest-spinning objects ever ...

If the mass of the neutron star does not exceed a critical value of about one or two solar masses, a stable equilibrium situation can be reached with the gas pressure balancing the gravitational ...

‘Radical Change’ Needed After Latest Neutron Star Collision A recent neutron star merger has defied astronomers’ expectations, leading them to question longstanding ideas about neutron stars and the ...

A new study by DTU Space researchers has revealed a neutron star that rotates around its axis at an extremely high speed. It spins 716 times per second, making it one of the fastest-spinning ...
