Astrophysicists are closing in on one of the strangest possibilities in stellar evolution, a compact remnant that might sit ...

New research explains how dust links the formation, evolution, and fate of stars and planets, and why future telescopes are needed to observe these processes in detail ...

Astronomers have discovered the first pairs of white dwarf and main sequence stars -- 'dead' remnants and 'living' stars -- in young star clusters. This breakthrough offers new insights on an extreme ...

The evolution of stars and their interactions with compact objects, such as black holes and neutron stars, remain pivotal in our understanding of the cosmos. Stellar evolution describes the life ...

For the first time, the famous “spirograph” Planetary Nebula IC418’s non-explosive stellar evolution has been captured over an unprecedented period of 130 years—almost double the length of a typical ...
