An international team of astronomers reports the detection of four new gamma-ray millisecond pulsars using the Murriyang ...

A neutron star is defying the rules of the universe, emitting radio pulses from both its ends while moving extremely slowly.

A cosmic enigma, ASKAP J1839-0756, a slow-spinning neutron star discovered using the ASKAP radio telescope, is challenging ...

A puzzling new type of radio signal – lasting seconds to minutes – has been linked to a binary star system featuring a white ...

"We are able to measure the local dark matter density using direct acceleration measurements for the first time." ...

Recently, astronomers have been puzzled by an unknown type of cosmic radio signal. A new breakthrough has finally traced one of them.

These pulses are unlike anything expected from known radio-emitting neutron stars, or pulsars*, which produce pulses on the order of milliseconds. Furthermore, these so-called long-period ...

You may have heard of cosmic objects called pulsars – they’re a type of neutron star. Neutron stars are the remnants of extremely massive stars when they’ve reached the end of their life.

When these stars dance, they make their own music. Astronomers have tracked down the source of a mysterious radio signal from ...

In 2015, astrophysicists discovered a system consisting of two compact stars orbiting each other: a pulsar (i.e., a highly magnetized rapidly rotating, light-emitting neutron star) and a so-called ...
