Neutron stars likely contain a quark soup center, and the authors of today’s paper seek to see if the process of neutrons being crushed into this quark soup could explain the unexplained fast radio burst phenomenon.
Did you know we are looking for black hole binaries orbiting supermassive black holes? Here’s how!
We can’t exactly put massive neutron stars on scales, so how do we measure their masses? Today’s paper introduces a new method, using high-energy gamma rays!
Today’s paper explores how gravitational wave parallax can help us characterize neutron stars.
Today’s authors search for gravitational waves from extreme sources – magnetar short bursts!
Cellular automata may be *crust* what we need to understand the properties of magnetars.
