Some of the universe’s heaviest elements are born in chaos, in matter flung outward when neutron stars collide or massive ...

Using a novel simulation model based on machine learning, an international research team at GSI/FAIR has succeeded in gaining a deeper understanding of element formation in stellar events such as ...

Few spectacles in space are as phenomenal as supernovae, but a "superkilonova" may give them a run for their money. This type of cosmic outburst is thought to arise when a supernova cascades into a ...

"We studied the last several orbits before the merger, when the entwined magnetic fields undergo rapid and dramatic changes, and modeled potentially observable high-energy signals." When you purchase ...

Multi-messenger astronomy of neutron star mergers unites gravitational-wave detections, electromagnetic observations across the spectrum and potential neutrino and cosmic-ray signals to probe the ...
