The transformation of neutrinos in a neutron star merger could be crucial to shaping the way events of the collision unfold. For the first time, a team of physicists has simulated how neutrinos change ...

In an ejection that would have caused its rotation to slow, a magnetar is depicted losing material into space in this artist’s concept. The magnetar’s strong, twisted magnetic field lines (shown in ...

Astronomers have discovered a previously unknown process by which some of the universe’s rarest and most valuable elements, such as gold and platinum, are forged in the violent flares of magnetized ...

A new method uses gold to assemble multi-element nanoparticles under mild conditions, offering improvements in catalytic activity and long-term stability. (Nanowerk Spotlight) The drive to engineer ...
