In nuclear physics, "magic numbers" identify specific numbers of protons or neutrons that lead to especially stable nuclei.
The heaviest neutron star ever detected is shredding its companion while spinning around its axis over 700 times per second.
Fifty experts on nuclear physics, particle physics and astrophysics met at CERN from 9 to 13 June to discuss how to use ...
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 ...
Gravitational waves reveal “mystery object” merging with a neutron star The so-called "mass gap" might be less empty than physicists previously thought.
The origin of a very low-mass neutron star in system J0453+1559 had been debated for a while, but the observations also showed a few other neutron stars with quite low mass." ...
A computer simulation shows how two neutron stars of unequal mass merge, form a black hole and spit out a jet of high energy matter.

New Insights into the Mass of Protons and Neutrons - MSNRecent theoretical and experimental advances provide new insights into how mass is distributed within particles like protons, neutrons, and pions, offering critical guidance for future research.
“Black widow” neutron star devoured its mate to become heaviest found yet This work may set an upper limit on just how large neutron stars can become.
Astronomers have observed the most massive known example of an object called a neutron star, one classified as a "black widow" that got particularly hefty by gobbling up most of the mass of a ...
New research suggests that colliding neutron stars can briefly "trap" ghostly particles called neutrinos, which could reveal new secrets about some of space's most extreme events.
When a star up to 20 times the mass of our sun exploded in a nearby galaxy, the blast was so violent that it was visible to the naked eye from Earth's southern hemisphere for weeks in 1987 ...
