A cosmic object with the slowest-ever known rotation has been detected by Australian radio astronomers. The discovery may ...

In this visualization of stars observed by ESA's Gaia mission, the "frequency of the rotating and pulsating stars was ...

Pulsars are the remnants of large stars that exploded in a supernova. Check out these 7 stunning pulsar images shared by NASA ...

This "pulsing" appearance gives some neutron stars the name pulsars. After spinning for several million years pulsars are drained of their energy and become normal neutron stars. Few of the known ...

An approximately 14 million year old pulsar star that is the “slowest-spinning” of its kind ever identified has been discovered by a PhD student from The University of Manchester. Chia Min Tan, a PhD ...

Pulsar hunting nights are now the new way to stargaze. These evenings let participants detect signals from pulsars, which are ...

Scientists in Australia, the United States, and England have collaborated to observe something extraordinary: the slowest pulsar we’ve ever seen. This powerful dead star rotates once every 6.45 ...

1043-1096 (54 pages) ABSTRACT. We present a summary of what is currently known about the three distinct families of isolated pulsating white dwarfs. These are the GW Vir stars (He/C/O-atmosphere stars ...

Collapsed dead stars, known as neutron stars, are a trillion times denser than lead, and their surface features are largely unknown. Nuclear theorists have explored mountain building mechanisms ...

But now, a rare burst has provided indications that FRBs likely originate near the star and that they share a feature with the emissions of pulsars, another subtype of neutron star.
