and astrophysicists predicted that as two compact objects -- especially neutron stars -- collide, they should emit gamma-rays in jets," LIGO scientist Vicky Kalogera said during a press conference.

The violent merger of two neutron stars is thought to involve three main energy-transfer processes, shown in this diagram, that give rise to the different types of radiation seen by astronomers ...

and when two particularly massive objects -- like two black holes or two neutron stars -- collide, they can ripple space-time sending those gravitational waves out into space like ripples on a pond.

In 2015, astrophysicists discovered a system consisting of two compact stars orbiting each other: a pulsar (i.e., a highly magnetized rapidly rotating, light-emitting neutron star) and a so-called ...

The gargantuan collision of two neutron stars detected with gravitational ... occurs — and enable telescopes to watch how stars collide in real time. Five new ways to catch gravitational waves ...

DINGO-BNS could one day help to observe electromagnetic signals before and at the time of the collision of the two neutron stars. "Such early multi-messenger observations could provide new ...

"This insight gives a new tool for understanding the most cataclysmic events of the universe: two neutron stars merging to form a black hole, which is the process responsible for the creation of ...

Neutron stars can have a resounding impact around the universe. Scientists recently announced the first detection of gravitational waves created by two neutron stars smashing into each other.
