Neutron star

Physicists confront the neutron lifetime puzzle.

A stellar ghost!

Combining heavy-ion experiments, astrophysical observations, and nuclear theory.

It is a unique discovery as it resides in the neutron star graveyard.

Spinning stars shed new light on a mysterious gamma-ray signal.

NASA's NICER tracks a magnetar's hot spots.

Dark energy: neutron stars will tell us if it’s only an illusion.

The discovery provides new insight into the behaviors of some of the most extreme objects in the universe.

The mysterious object is unlike anything astronomers, has seen before.

Using the 4.1-meter SOAR Telescope in Chile, astronomers have discovered the first example of a binary system where a star in the process of...

In just a 10th of a second, the magnetar released energy equivalent to that produced by the sun in 100,000 years.

The discovery may offer astronomers a new way to spot infant compact objects.
