Kilonova

Scientists have revealed that the collision of Neutron stars causes spherical Kilonova explosions. This contradicts the earlier theory. Stars are celestial objects millions of years old floating in space. When a star runs out of fuel, its…

Astronomers have observed what might be the "perfect explosion," a colossal and utterly spherical blast triggered by the merger of two very dense stellar remnants called neutron stars shortly before the combined entity collapsed to form…

In an astonishing development, astronomers have identified an extremely rare binary star system which has all the right conditions to trigger a Kilonova explosion one day. Stars are celestial objects millions of years old floating in…

While tracing a burst of high-energy light identified in 2021, astronomers discovered the first astronomical event in which a long gamma-ray explosion (GRBs) and a rare kilonova emission coexisted.   This occurred about 1 billion…
