Astronomers Puzzled to Find an Odd Radio Signal Coming From a Fracture in the Milky Way’s ‘Cosmic Snake’ The Milky Way galaxy ...

Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST), Chinese astronomers have discovered a new millisecond ...

Scientists using South Africa’s MeerKAT telescope have peered into the interstellar medium like never before, uncovering ...

The interstellar plasma is turbulent and scatters pulsar radio waves slightly away from a direct, straight line path. The ...

Pulsar J1719-1438 is a very fast-spinning pulsar—what’s called a millisecond pulsar. Amazingly, it rotates more than 10,000 times per minute, has a mass of about 1.4 times that of our Sun but is only ...

The sensitivity of our study was only possible because of the close proximity of the pulsar (it's our nearest millisecond pulsar neighbour) and the large collecting area of the MeerKAT radio ...

For the past decade, he's been studying one of the closest neutron stars to earth, known as a millisecond pulsar. It's rotating at 174 times per second - that's as fast as a blender. "The ...

PSR J1719-1438b is believed to be the remains of a star whose outer layers have been stripped away by a large neutron star, which also functions as a millisecond pulsar. Despite the loss of its outer ...
