A team of astronomers has made a groundbreaking discovery of a new cosmic object, ASKAP J1832-0911, which emits pulses of radio waves and X-rays. This unprecedented finding could lead to insights into the mysterious signals observed across the universe.
In a groundbreaking study, scientists reveal that magnetars may be responsible for creating heavy elements like gold and platinum. These neutron stars emit giant flares, producing conditions for the 'r-process' that forms these precious materials. This discovery could reshape our understanding of the universe's elemental origins.
Scientists have uncovered that intense radiation from magnetar flares can produce vast amounts of heavy elements like gold and platinum in mere seconds, reshaping our understanding of cosmic metal formation.
