Using the world's most advanced radio telescopes, astronomers have discovered a spinning dead star so rare, strange and ...

Observations of a pulsar, consisting of a dead star spinning 600 times a second, and feasting on a stellar companion reveal ...

A neutron star has been found spinning nearly twice as fast as any other star, suggesting exotic 'soft' states of matter lie inside the dense stars ...

Fast-spinning objects that are not perfectly symmetrical are predicted to radiate away energy in gravitational waves, with faster objects unleashing much more energy than slower ones.

The fastest-spinning white dwarf ever discovered is a shrinking cosmic vampire feasting on a stellar companion. A feeding process is pushing the dead star toward an imminent supernova explosion.

Chandra X-ray Observatory obtained a video of the Vela pulsar, a neutron star 12 miles in diameter that makes a complete rotation in 89 milliseconds.

World champion Luke Littler has set up a new project away from the sport, which is expected to see him rake in a very heft ...

July 27 -- Squeeze a beach ball and it will flatten. Now scientists have shown that a star will bulge in the middle in a similar way if spinning at very high velocity. For a long time scientists ...

In the binary system 4U 1820-30, a neutron star is spinning so fast around its center axis that it completes a breathtaking 716 rotations per second. No stars have been discovered spinning faster ...
