XRISM Discovers Unexpected “Cosmic Fog” Blowing from Neutron Star—A Breakthrough in Astrophysics
In a recent breakthrough, the XRISM mission has uncovered a puzzling cosmic phenomenon—a slow, dense wind emanating from the neutron star GX13+1. This unexpected discovery, detailed in a study ...
XRISM found a slow, thick wind from a neutron star, pointing to temperature as the key driver of cosmic wind behavior. The ...
Ask Dr. Universe: Earth’s crust couldn’t withstand weight and pressure of a fragment of neutron star
Mon., June 23, 2025 A composite image of the supernova 1E0102.2-7219 contains X-rays from Chandra (blue and purple), visible light data from VLT’s MUSE instrument (bright red), and additional data ...
Astronomers have used an X-ray spacecraft called XRISM to observe powerful winds blowing from a neutron star — the findings ...
In a significant breakthrough, astronomers have recently discovered a “ghost star” nestled within the remnants of a supernova. This mesmerizing discovery provides fresh perspectives on the life cycle ...
In a bizarre gamma-ray space explosion whose light reached Earth in 2023, a team led by astronomer Run-Chao Chen of Nanjing ...
It weighs more than 2 times the mass of our sun, but is only 18 miles wide. Astronomers have discovered the "most massive neutron star ever measured," amassing to more than two times the mass of our ...
A neutron star's final moments may spark violent starquakes, monster shock waves, and even a fleeting, never-before-seen object called a black hole pulsar. The universe is full of spectacular and ...

Ghost Particles Could Boost Gold Production in Neutron Star Collisions
Neutron star collisions are known to be factories in which heavy elements are produced. The fusion that takes place inside stellar cores can only produce elements up to iron; the r-process, or ...
New simulations of neutron star mergers reveal that the mixing and changing of tiny particles called neutrinos impacts how ...
Gravity from mountains on rapidly rotating neutron stars produces ripples in space-time known as gravitational waves. The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) searches for such ...
