Globular clusters are dense groups of hundreds of thousands to millions of stars that orbit galaxies such as the Milky Way.

For generations, astronomers have pondered the origins of globular clusters, which are among the universe’s oldest and ...

For centuries, scientists have puzzled over globular clusters, the dense star systems that orbit galaxies without dark matter ...

In binary star systems, the behavior of protoplanetary disks presents complex challenges to existing models. A research team from the University of Grenoble Alpes, including Pedro P. Poblete, Nicolás ...

For centuries, astronomers have puzzled over the origins of one of the universe’s oldest and densest stellar systems, known as globular clusters. Now, a University of Surrey-led study published in ...

The simulation run by Hayashi and his colleagues sheds new light on the complex physics of binary neutron star mergers, showing that when these mergers are followed by the formation of black holes, ...

Scientists have developed the longest and most complex simulation to date of a binary neutron star collision that results in the formation of a black hole and a jet. The breakthrough will massively ...

The study of galaxies and their star formation processes remains a cornerstone of modern astrophysics. Galaxies are the fundamental building blocks of the Universe, each hosting a complex interplay of ...

Researchers at Istanbul University and Akdeniz University have made an important discovery about the CN Lyn star system. Unlike most multi-star systems, CN Lyn's three stars formed at different times, ...

Astronomers have identified a rare type of binary star system containing a rapidly spinning millisecond pulsar and a helium star companion, formed via common envelope evolution. Although such systems ...

A large team of astronomers and astrophysicists affiliated with several institutions in China has discovered a binary star system, where one of the stars is a millisecond pulsar and the other is made ...

Astronomers have for the first time spotted a solar system beyond our own in its very earliest stages of formation. The research community has long sought such a system to help us understand the ...
