Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are one of the greater mysteries facing astronomers today, rivaled only by gravitational waves (GWs) ...
Astronomers have traced two mysterious fast radio bursts from space to wildly different places, which suggests the phenomenon ...
French nuclear start-up Hexana, spun out the Alternative Energies & Atomic Energy Commission (CEA – Commissariat à l’énergie ...
Scintillation measurements show that FRB 20221022A originated from the highly magnetized region around a neutron star, challenging existing models of conditions there ...
Researchers Intrigued by Mysterious Fast Radio Burst Originating From Ancient Galaxy Researchers have been observing fast ...
While neutron stars typically rotate in milliseconds or seconds, ASKAP J1839-075 takes an astonishing 6.45 hours to complete ...
Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to ...
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.
However, for neutron stars, which are dead stars that spin so fast they can celebrate an Earth New Year around twice a second, the cosmic fireworks may aptly never end. New research suggests that ...
