A long-duration simulation of a binary neutron star merger, using a neutrino-radiation magnetohydrodynamics framework, demonstrates that such mergers can promptly collapse into a black hole and ...

An artist's concept of a black hole orbited by a neutron star. Image: Caltech/R. Hurt (IPAC) When a black hole and a neutron star finally meet, the result is cosmic carnage—and now, thanks to ...

Supercomputer shows black hole cracking neutron star in final explosive seconds. Perlmutter supercomputer reveals how a black hole rips open a neutron star, triggering quakes and monster shock waves.

While black hole pulsars had been previously conjectured, the simulation is the first to show how such a rare object could actually form in nature from the collision of a neutron star and a black ...

Neutron star mergers are also one of the few events capable of generating gravitational waves (the other two being neutron star-black hole mergers, and two black holes merging), and so they are ...

Black holes, buildings on poles, and a 'sea urchin planet': PUBG creator's world-sized tech demo may be hiding some bizarre machine learning 'hallucinations' News By Christopher Livingston ...

The current generation of gravitational wave detectors could "hear" supernovas over 65 million light-years away, helping scientists determine if a dying star creates a black hole or a neutron star.

NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory is one of its most scientifically productive space missions. The telescope has been in space for 25 years, discovering black holes and dark matter.; Chandra's best ...

Discovering Earth-mass primordial black holes with NASA’s Roman Space Telescope could transform our understanding of the universe and dark matter. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center Primordial ...

A neutron star spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope stayed hidden for 37 years while lurking in the wreckage of a stellar explosion, Supernova 1987A. When you purchase through links on our ...

Astronomers have discovered a neutron star orbiting a mysterious object that, by all accounts, shouldn’t be able to exist. Seemingly invisible in light, and too small to be a black hole, the ...

And that’s precisely what we’ve found – an object that is neither obviously a neutron star nor a black hole. Hubble Space Telescope image of the globular cluster NGC 1851.
