Neutron stars are among the most powerful and mysterious objects in the universe. Born from the explosive deaths of massive stars in supernovae, these dense stellar remnants pack more mass than our ...
See a pair of superheavy neutron stars collide in this simulation with gravitational wave audio. "An audible tone and a ...

What Would Happen If You Stood On a Neutron Star?
What would happen if you could stand on a neutron star? In this video, we explore the extreme gravity, intense radiation, and mind-bending physics that make neutron stars some of the most dangerous ...
Some neutron stars may contain a "special type of matter," according to a new NASA study. These observations from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory indicate that the interiors of neutron stars might ...
It weighs more than 2 times the mass of our sun, but is only 18 miles wide. Astronomers have discovered the "most massive neutron star ever measured," amassing to more than two times the mass of our ...
In a major breakthrough, scientists have simulated in unprecedented detail how a neutron star cracks just seconds before being swallowed by a black hole. The simulation, led by Caltech astrophysicist ...
New simulations show that neutrino flavor transformations change both the composition and the signals left behind after neutron star collisions. When two neutron stars collide and merge, the result is ...
Scientists have finally figured out what is at the centre of a nearby supernova. Supernova 1987A is the first stellar explosion that we have been able to track in detail since it began, and now we ...
