Neutron star mergers are collisions between neutron stars, the collapsed cores of what were once massive supergiant stars.

A network of research stations around the world was alerted to the event and scientists soon confirmed that the collision and fusion of two neutron stars located 130 million light years from Earth ...

Astronomers have discovered that the magnetar SGR 0501+4516 is speeding through our galaxy at more than 110,000 mph. This ...

The team suggests that energetic photons generated by newly forming black holes or neutron stars transmute protons within ejected stellar material into neutrons, thereby providing ideal conditions for ...

A machine learning method has the potential to revolutionize multi-messenger astronomy. Detecting binary neutron star mergers ...

That's because astronomers have discovered that this magnetar, which is a special type of highly magnetic neutron star, wasn't actually born in a nearby supernova as previously theorized.

Billions and billions of years ago, before the world even existed, a collision between two neutron stars gave the Earth its most commercially precious metals — gold, silver, platinum and uranium.

This composite image shows RCW 103 and its central source, called 1E 161348-5055 (1E 1613), exhibiting properties of a highly magnetized neutron star, or magnetar, yet its deduced spin period is ...
