An international team of astronomers reports the detection of four new gamma-ray millisecond pulsars using the Murriyang ...

In the past three years, astronomers have discovered a mysterious new type of radio source. We call these long-period transients.

That wobble is due to the influence of the Milky Way's satellite galaxies, like the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), and rapidly rotating neutron stars, or "pulsars." Fascinatingly, pulsars act like ...

A cosmic enigma, ASKAP J1839-0756, a slow-spinning neutron star discovered using the ASKAP radio telescope, is challenging ...

A puzzling new type of radio signal – lasting seconds to minutes – has been linked to a binary star system featuring a white ...

The starburst-like diagram is called a pulsar map, because it shows the location of our sun relative to known pulsars. Pulsars are the rapidly spinning remains of dying stars—the leftover cores ...

Using the MeerKAT radio telescope in South Africa, an international team of astronomers has detected three new millisecond pulsars in the globular cluster Messier 62 (also known as NGC 6266).

Astronomers discovered a mysterious 2-hour radio pulse from a hidden white dwarf system, revealing a new type of stellar duo ...

They changed the name of the signal from LGM to CP, for Cambridge pulsar. Many more pulsars have been found since the first. They are believed to be rapidly rotating neutron stars with intense ...

When these stars dance, they make their own music. Astronomers have tracked down the source of a mysterious radio signal from ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Direct acceleration measurements of solitary pulsars have enabled the estimation of local dark matter density in the Milky Way. This approach effectively doubles ...
