Astronomers suspect the heart of the Milky Way may be hiding a big secret: a rapidly spinning, highly magnetic, neutron star-powered pulsar.

Neutron stars are ultra-dense remnants of massive stars that collapsed after supernova explosions and are made up mostly of ...

Scientists report a possible pulsar at the Milky Way’s center, discovered through radio observations by the Breakthrough Listen team using the Green Bank Telescope, offering a new laboratory for ...

Merger of two neutron stars in the aftermath of a supernova may have been observed for the first time, though questions ...

Quantum computing and neutron star physics are converging on the same hard problem: how to describe matter when gravity and quantum mechanics both refuse to stay in the background. Researchers are ...

A mysterious cosmic explosion linked to gravitational waves may reveal a previously unknown type of supernova event - a ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. This artist's concepts shows a hypothesized event known as a superkilonova. A massive star explodes in a supernova (left), which ...

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 ...
