Understanding these cosmic collisions not only sheds light on the origins of elements but also reveals the history that shaped our solar system.

Kilonova explosions from neutron star collisions may damage atmospheres and threaten life if nearby, according to a new study ...

"Understanding the birth masses of neutron stars is key to unlocking their formation history," said Dr. Simon Stevenson, an ...

Simulations of highly magnetized stars that explode and collapse into black holes show that they transfer their magnetic fields to the disk of swirling matter that forms around the new black hole.

StarBurst, a wide-field gamma ray observatory, arrived at March 4 for environmental testing and final instrument integration.

A machine learning method has the potential to revolutionize multi-messenger astronomy. Detecting binary neutron star mergers is a top priority for astronomers. These rare collisions between dense ...

In this environment, Mumpower’s team suggest that energetic photons in a jet collide with protons to create a neutron and a pion. Since these neutrons are have no electrical charge, many of them could ...
