Learn about the explosions that often occur at the end of a white dwarf star's life, allowing scientists to study the ...

A super-Earth planet that dips in and out of its star's habitable zone has been discovered just 19.7 light-years away.

The core of a massive cluster of galaxies appears to be pumping out far more stars than it should. Now researchers at MIT and ...

Astronomers have discovered two objects that at first looked like a well-known stage in star formation, but also have features that don’t fit that at all. Their forthcoming paper announcing the ...

We determined the pulsation modes of the stars based on the pulsation constants. Moreover, the period–luminosity (P–L) relation of δ Scuti stars was investigated and discussed. Then, by using a ...

Was a powerful cosmic explosion seen by the Einstein Probe launched by a supermassive black hole snacking on a star, by a ...

An international team, including the UNIGE, has discovered a super-Earth that will enable astronomers to test new hypotheses ...

The brighter the star is overall, the longer the period of luminosity. Since the cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds were all about the same distance from Earth, Leavitt concluded that the period ...

Sirius, the Dog Star, is difficult to ignore. Ostentatiously scintillating on the southern horizon right now, the “Searing ...
