Astronomers using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory to observe galaxy Messier 83 (M83) spotted the unexpected explosive aftermath of a supernova. Typically, the aftermath of a stellar explosion is a ...
A strange "chirping" signal from a distant supernova has revealed the birth of a magnetar, confirming that these incredibly magnetic neutron stars can power the universe's brightest stellar explosions ...
Most gamma-ray bursts—the brightest, most powerful explosions in the universe—are tracked back to the deaths of massive stars. But a new discovery suggests that such enormous explosions can come from ...
Astronomers have for the first time observed the birth of a magnetar, a highly magnetized, rapidly spinning neutron star, directly linked to some of the universe’s brightest exploding stars. This ...

This rare blue eye pulsar was thought to be silent, astronomers finally heard its radio signals after decades of searching
Astronomers have detected faint radio signals from a neutron star that was thought to be completely silent for decades. Known ...
WASHINGTON, April 3 (Reuters) - A supernova - the explosive death of a star - is always violent, blasting material into space while typically leaving behind a compact stellar remnant like a neutron ...
“We got a rare glimpse into how destruction can be a catalyst for creation." The lightless behemoths are explored in new simulations of their interactions with extremely dense stars. A forgotten flare ...
