Using the Hubble and Gaia space telescopes, astronomers have discovered that a powerfully magnetic neutron star in the Milky ...

They discovered a binary system containing an M dwarf star and a white dwarf, whose orbital period matches up with the period of the radio pulses. M dwarfs, also called red dwarfs, are low-mass ...

Out in the universe lie dead stellar remnants called neutron stars, and these stars gain tremendously powerful magnetic fields when matter ejected from during their explosive supernova deaths ...

These extremely rare repeating radio pulses are similar to what's emitted by rapidly rotating stars called pulsars ... are sometimes referred to as "dead stars" because they're the leftover ...
