Our milky way galaxy is approximately 100,000 light years in diameter. Astrophysics Szabolcs Marka (Marka Szabolcs) from Columbia University and Imre Bartos (Imre Bartos) from Florida state University, both research institutions of the USA, have identified a powerful collision between two neutron stars, occurred 4.6 billion years ago as the …

The sizes of the stars are approaching the maximum possible. Neutron stars are amazing objects that can not be seen directly. The density of these stars is comparable with the density of an atomic nucleus, and their sizes are measured in kilometers. Neutron they are called because much of their …

We are talking about the first ever commit detector LIGO gravitational wave signal from a pair of merged neutron stars. We are talking about the first ever commit detector LIGO gravitational wave signal from a pair of merged neutron stars. Earlier this collaboration was recorded three signals from coalescing pairs …

Scientists have identified how black power is dependent on the cylindrical shape of the body. Brazilian scientists have found that such superdense body like a neutron star have on other objects attracting powerful “black power.” The so-called impact arising from the emission of ceretelevo radiation. About it reported in a …

In one second the neutron star makes 600 revolutions around its axis. Scientists from the Astronomical center of Nicolaus Copernicus in Warsaw (Poland) suggested that neutron star J1023+0038 is a mountain. A study published on the website arXiv.org. In one second the neutron star J1023+0038 makes 600 revolutions around its …
