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

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 ...

OUR universe is set to end far sooner than we thought – so if you planned on living forever, there’s bad news. Scientists have calculated a possible “death date” for our ...

Scientists have discovered a new way to probe the interiors of neutron stars by using gravitational waves to turn them into "cosmic tuning forks." The reverberations of such ripples in spacetime ...

suggests that accelerating objects create gravitational waves. That means that when black holes and neutron stars spiral around each other, they emit low-frequency gravitational waves, then ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. New research suggests that this current generation of gravitational wave detectors could "hear" ...

At press conferences held across continents, scientists today announced the first detection of gravitational waves created by two neutron stars smashing into each other. First theorized by Albert ...

Observing gravitational waves from neutron stars as they glitch could help us understand these exotic stellar remnants. Neutron stars are considered to be the most extreme and exotic celestial ...

Neutron stars are the smallest, most dense stars known to exist and are formed when massive stars explode in supernovas. Once this software detects a gravitational wave signal, it sends out alerts ...

Ripples in space-time point to the merger of a neutron star with another mystery object ... ripples in the fabric of space and time known as gravitational waves. These waves were sensed and ...

The LIGO/VIRGO/KAGRA collaboration searches the universe for gravitational waves produced by the mergers of black holes and neutron stars. It has now announced the detection of a signal indicating ...

A collaboration of researchers including UBC scientists have observed gravitational waves from the collision of what is most likely a neutron star and an object likely to be a light black hole, 650 ...
