Scientists figure out how different factors, like temperature, density, and pressure, relate to each other in the matter inside neutron stars.
Results for "neutron stars"
Swirling clouds of axions around neutron stars could help scientists detect dark matter
Dark matter may be gathering in dense clouds around neutron stars, potentially making it easier to observe it from Earth.
Neutron stars could be the gateway to dark matter
Could neutron stars hold the key to observing dark matter? Researchers believe studying them might one day reveal this elusive substance.
Neutron stars may be hiding quark matter in their cores
Massive neutron stars have such enormous pressure in their cores that neutrons residing there lose their integrity and become a new type of matter.
How accurate are our models of rotating neutron stars?
Comparing algorithms used to model spinning neutron stars, scientists hope to better understand the physics of the elementary particles that make them up.
A theory of frozen stars challenges our understanding of black holes
Linking string theory with observations, frozen stars shed new light on black holes and the clash between quantum mechanics and relativity.
Observations shed light on neutron star paradox
Astronomers have observed neutron stars that emit more energy than is theoretically possible, and now an explanation might be in the works.
Is the Universe running out of stars?
Astronomers are discovering that the rate of star formation in the universe is dropping, and they want to know why.
Tetraneutron finally found
Physicists have reported the observation of a tetraneutron, a subatomic particle consisting of just four neutrons.
Finding a magnetar, a neutron star’s baby brother
Scientists have observed a peculiar object emitting radio waves once every 20 minutes, and it may be a new kind of neutron star.
