Collapsing stars might act as cosmic laboratories for discovering hidden neutrino interactions. Neutrinos are among the most ...

Core collapse supernovae are among the most powerful and dramatic events in the cosmos. When a massive star reaches the end ...

Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

Both teams releasing papers detected the object independently, using different sets of data. Both teams found the same ...

Neutrinos are among the most mysterious particles in the universe. They are extremely light, travel close to the speed of ...

Two teams of astronomers have simultaneously discovered a strange, spinning dead star that seems to defy our current ...

Like an ice skater drawing in their arms to increase their spin speed, the collapse of neutron stars can "spin up" these objects so much that some are capable of spinning up to 700 times per second.

NASA’s Roman Space Telescope is set to embark on a deep-sky survey that could capture nearly 100,000 cosmic explosions, ...

Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use extreme environments as precise laboratories for fundamental physics.

Chandra observations of RX J1856.5-3754 suggest that the matter in this collapsed star is even denser than nuclear ... This size is too small to reconcile with the standard models of neutron stars.

Neutron stars are the perfect cosmic laboratory for the scientists who study them, thanks to their observability, extreme gravity, and strong magnetic fields.
