Neutron stars are some of the densest objects in the universe. They are the core of a collapsed megastar that went supernova, have a typical radius of 10 km—just slightly more than the altitude of Mt.

Neutron stars, the remnants of massive stars after a supernova explosion, have often been the focus of studies aimed at testing and unveiling exotic physics. This is because these stars are among the ...

When neutron stars collide, they likely create the densest form of matter in the present-day Universe. Through an innovative use of two theoretical methods, researchers have now gained a more detailed ...
