Ten years after the groundbreaking discovery of gravitational waves, physicists are gearing up for even more extraordinary findings. With plans for advanced detectors like the Cosmic Explorer, the universe's mysteries are set to unfold like never before!
Discover the latest groundbreaking findings in gravitational wave astronomy, including record-breaking black hole mergers and the quest to understand the universe's most mysterious phenomena.
Astronomers have detected a groundbreaking gamma-ray burst, GRB 250702B, that exploded multiple times over a day, challenging existing theories about cosmic explosions. This unprecedented event could reshape our understanding of the universe!
On March 16, 2025, the CHIME telescope detected RBFLOAT, the brightest fast radio burst ever recorded, emitting energy equal to the Sun's output over four days. This unprecedented discovery has astronomers racing to uncover its origins.
Astronomers have tracked the brightest flash of radio waves, known as RBFLOAT, back to its source in the galaxy NGC 4141, revolutionizing our understanding of fast radio bursts (FRBs).
Astronomers have uncovered a mysterious object emitting pulses every 44 minutes, detected through both X-ray and radio signals. Named ASKAP J1832-0911, this discovery raises questions about its origins and classification.
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.
