A superkilonova candidate event, named AT2025ulz, was observed in 2025; LIGO and Virgo first spotted gravitational waves, ...

Astronomers have spotted AT2025ulz, a rare dual explosion — a supernova and a kilonova — that may be the first-ever observed ...

A double blast of dying stars may be the first observed case of a long-hypothesized, never proven “superkilonova.” Although ...

A massive star may have burst, leaving behind two dense, dead cores, which then collided and caused another explosion ...

Turin, July 18th 2022 – Particles can move as waves along different paths at the same time – this is one of the most important findings of quantum physics. A particularly impressive example is the ...

At the very smallest scales, our intuitive view of reality no longer applies. It's almost as if physics is fundamentally indecisive, a truth that gets harder to ignore as we zoom in on the particles ...

Neutron collisions are cosmic events of immense power that have the ability to forge some of the universe’s most precious elements, including gold. These astronomical phenomena provide a unique ...

Somewhere in space, two neutron stars slowly orbit one another. Their slow dance would have a cataclysmic ending. They were doomed to collide, to merge in a spectacular display of gravitational wave ...

One of the most important experiments of quantum physics gets a makeover: When neutrons are fired at a crystal, they can be made to travel along two paths at the same time. Until now, this was only ...
