Neutron Stars Collide, Forging Heavy Elements in a Cosmic Inferno

1 month ago 3
Radioactive Cloud After Neutron Star CollisionAstrophysicists have, for the first time, measured the temperature of elementary particles in the radioactive afterglow of a neutron star collision, which led to the formation of a black hole. This breakthrough enables scientists to examine microscopic physical properties within these powerful cosmic events. The findings also reveal how single observations capture an object’s presence [...]
