An international team of astronomers has uncovered a new class of radio-emitting celestial object that could redefine what we know about long-period radio transients. In a study published on arXiv, ...

Astronomers have caught a highly magnetic dead star, or "magnetar," in the Milky Way briefly acting like a pulsar, a type of neutron star that rapidly rotates. The magnetar put on its pulsar ...

Strongly magnetic pulsar could explain anomalous supernovas Magnetars may drive super-luminous supernovas in the local Universe.

Anduril this week revealed its Pulsar-L jammer, a small, lightweight electronic warfare system designed to track and defeat threats like drone swarms. (Anduril) Defense technology firm Anduril ...

Magnetar Capital, already poised for a big win off the boom, is in talks to take part in a $40 billion funding round for OpenAI.

International team reports on a radio pulsar phase of a Galactic magnetar that emitted a fast radio burst in 2020; observations suggest unique origins for 'bursts' and 'pulses,' which adds to FRB ...

Researchers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered the magnetar called SGR 0501+4516 is traversing our galaxy from an unknown place of origin. Researchers say that this runaway ...

NASA illustration of a magnetar losing material into space. A new magnetar fast radio burst was detected coming from a magnetar in our own galaxy. NASA/JPL-Caltech Now, the new paper reveals more ...

Our unusually slow pulsar could best be explained as a magnetar – a pulsar with exceedingly complex and powerful magnetic fields that could generate radio waves for several months before stopping.

Astronomers shed new light on formation of mysterious fast radio bursts International team reports on a radio pulsar phase of a Galactic magnetar that emitted a fast radio burst in 2020 ...

Though magnetars and pulsars are two distinct types of neutron stars, astronomers have spotted a magnetar mimicking a pulsar after launching a mysterious blast of intense radiation.
