New research indicates that matter ejected during the supernova death of a star can fall back to neutrons stars, giving rise ...

Scientists have uncovered the long-sought mechanism behind low-field magnetars, showing that supernova fallback material ...

Supernova debris speeds up neutron stars, strengthening magnetic fields. This explains why low-intensity magnetars still produce bursts.

An international team of scientists have modelled formation and evolution of strongest magnetic fields in the Universe.

Their work provides crucial insights into the explosion mechanisms of this rare type of supernova and the final evolutionary stages of its progenitor star. This study is published in The ...

If a massive star is spinning very quickly, or it has an exceptionally strong magnetic field, its eventual supernova explosion will be highly collimated and almost jet-like, boosting the amplitude of ...

The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured a stunning image of SN 2022aajn, a Type Ia supernova ... s explosion, unveiling new insights into the interstellar medium and its magnetic structures.

Pulsars are the remnants of large stars that exploded in a supernova. Check out these 7 stunning pulsar images shared by NASA.

Magnetars are neutron stars with the universe's most powerful magnetic fields ... of the dying star's mass. This explosion is referred to as a core-collapse supernova.
