For astronomers, finding a new black hole orbiting ... lurking in binary system G3425, estimated to be around 5,800 ...

A neutron star is the collapsed core of a massive supergiant star, which had a total mass of between 10 and 25 solar masses, possibly more if the star was especially metal-rich. Except for black holes ...

Pairs circle around each other using different methods of travel to represent binary stars - a star system ... ‘hole’ shapes for other group members to travel through, to suggest a black ...

If a star orbits a black hole, it will appear from a distance to be orbiting empty space. Gaia projects the star’s orbit on a ...

Surprisingly, the neutron ... “In binary systems like the one we have now discovered, pulsars are known as ‘black widows’ because, like spiders of the same name, they eat their partners, so to speak," ...

This double-flash Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) could result from the black hole catching binary stars, allowing one ... Terrestrial Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS), ASASSN-22ci surprised them ...

There are two explanations — it could ve a black hole or a neutron star — according to a new study published in the Astrophysical Journal. The irony is that the observatory wasn’t really ...

Neutron stars are one of the densest objects in the universe, second only to black holes. Using observations from the merger of binary star system GW170817, astronomers believe that the mass of ...

In a galaxy 408 million light-years away, the black hole ASASSN-22ci consumed a star from a binary system, producing a rare double-flash tidal disruption event (TDE). First observed in February ...

More massive stars than the Sun have a very different life cycle and follow the right hand path in the diagram above: \(\begin{equation} \begin{aligned} Nebula \rightarrow protostar \rightarrow ...
