Scientists have come a step closer to understanding how collisionless shock waves—found throughout the universe—are able to accelerate particles to extreme speeds. The research, published in Nature ...
A mysterious cosmic object is sending pulses of radio and X-ray waves to Earth every 44 minutes, leaving astronomers baffled and eager for answers. Astronomers have discovered a cosmic anomaly that’s ...
A team of astronomers have compiled 12.5 years of data from the Fermi Gammy-ray Space Telescope to form a gamma-ray pulsar timing array, a system of cosmic lighthouses that could help reveal ripples ...
Some of the most energetic cosmic rays in the galaxy may come from a surprisingly small source. If Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics researcher Laura Olivera-Nieto and her colleagues are right, ...
The 10,000-year-old remnant of a supernova 2,600 light years away is acting like a giant particle accelerator, and it’s flinging cosmic rays out across the galaxy — like the Large Hadron Collider on ...
Astronomers have detected enormous shockwaves rattling the cosmic web that connects all galaxies in the universe, offering vital clues on how the largest structures in space were shaped. When you ...
A groundbreaking ceremony will be held 9 a.m. MDT Saturday Aug. 28 in the desert southwest of Delta, Utah, for the Telescope Array – a Japanese and American cosmic ray observatory designed to find the ...
