Featured Image: Hunting for Missing Supernova Remnants with EMU and POSSUM
Our galaxy likely contains far more supernova remnants than we’ve found so far. What progress have recent radio surveys made in the hunt for supernova remnants?
The hot Jupiter WASP-12b is on a collision course with its host star, and it’s heading that way faster than expected. New research examines a possible explanation for the planet’s speedy inspiraling.
A new catalog of giant pulses from the Crab Nebula pulsar reveals a feature predicted to exist but not seen until now.
Astrobites reports on NASA’s SPHEREx mission, which is collecting an infrared spectrum for every point in the sky — potentially revolutionizing our understanding of cosmic inflation, galaxy formation, and interstellar ices.
Last year, gravitational wave detectors triggered on what may have been a collision involving a sub-solar-mass neutron star. New research investigates a potential link between this event and a supernova.
New simulations suggest the outer solar system could disassemble within about one billion years after the Sun becomes a white dwarf.
An Early Discovery by Rubin Observatory
Astrobites reports on the discovery of a new ultra-faint dwarf galaxy in preview data taken before the start of Vera C. Rubin Observatory’s 10-year survey.
New radio observations provide the best view yet of the WISPIT 2 planetary system, revealing spiral wakes driven by a growing young planet.
Researchers use stellar pulsations to detect substellar companions around A-type stars — including what could be a first-of-its-kind exoplanet.
