Neutron stars, these cosmic remnants resulting from the catastrophic explosion of massive stars, represent one of the most ...

Gravity from mountains on rapidly rotating neutron stars produces ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) searches for such ...

Intense gravitational lensing means you’d be able to see much more of a neutron star standing on its surface than you would ...

Astronomers have used an X-ray spacecraft called XRISM to observe powerful winds blowing from a neutron star — the findings could be a "game changer" for physics. The team discovered unexpected ...
