Artist’s conception of a magnetar surrounded by an accretion disk that is wobbling, or precessing, because of the effects of general relativity. Some models of magnetars suggest that high-speed jets ...
It's never too late to solve a cold case. A new paper from Syracuse University researchers proposes an explanation for both a mysterious stellar object discovered in the year 2013 and an astronomical ...
WASHINGTON — A supernova, the explosive death of a star, is always violent, blasting material into space while typically leaving behind a compact stellar remnant like a neutron star or black hole. But ...
