Extreme nuclear transients are 10 million times rarer than supernovae and emit the same amount of energy as 100 Suns.

A new set of simulations offers an unparalleled look at the dramatic collision between a black hole and a neutron star, ...

Binary systems comprising black holes and or neutron stars represent the strongest sources of gravitational waves and have recently been revealed by detectors such as LIGO and Virgo. In this series of ...

When you think of a planet, you probably think of one of the planets in our own solar system, like Earth, Jupiter, or Mars. Most of the exoplanets we’ve discovered have been like those in our solar ...

Millisecond pulsars – rapidly spinning neutron stars that emit radio waves – achieve their extraordinary rotation rates by siphoning matter from a close stellar companion. The formation of these ...

Astronomers may have discovered a rare type of binary star system, where one star used to orbit inside its partner.

The detection, described on 22 May in Science 1, sheds light on processes that give rise to the spectacular mergers seen by gravitational-wave observatories — involving two neutron stars ...
