Neutron stars cram more mass than the sun into a city-sized ball where a teaspoon would weigh a billion tons
Among the strangest objects in the universe are the collapsed cores left behind when massive stars die. A neutron star packs more material than the entire Sun into a sphere only about the width of a ...
A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology used Frontier to chart the isospin density of a neutron star over a range of conditions. This illustration depicts isospin-dense ...
Improved spin and density correlation simulations give researchers clearer insights on neutron stars
When a star dies in a supernova, one possible outcome is for the remains to become a neutron star. Inside a neutron star, the protons and electrons combine into uncharged neutrons. This substance is ...

A teaspoon of one dead star would weigh as much as a mountain range
When a star several times more massive than the sun runs out of fuel, its core can collapse so violently that protons and ...
Neutron stars are some of the weirdest cosmic objects, and the greatest mysteries lie deep in their hearts. Neutron stars' surface gravities are so intense that the largest "mountains" are only a few ...
