Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

Neutrinos are cosmic tricksters, paradoxically hardly there but lethal to stars significantly more massive than the sun.

Neutrinos of different “flavor” quantum states (shown by colors) are entangled through interactions. In dense neutrino environments like core-collapse supernovae, this leads neutrinos of ...

Their work explains how a hypothetical interaction affects the pulse of neutrinos that is generated in a core-collapse supernova – something that could be seen in existing and future observations of ...

Astronomers now think it's likely there is a background of neutrinos across the cosmos and that one day, we will be able to map the historical distribution of supernova explosions, may be even by ...

The supernova, known as SN 1987A, was a core-collapse supernova, meaning the compacted remains at its core formed either a neutron star or a black hole.

This triggers a "core-collapse" supernova that blows away these outer layers and most of the mass of the dying star.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have peered into the famous SN 1987A supernova remnant and found something special inside.

Exploding stars are one of the hazards life faces in the universe, but a nearby explosion could cause anything from a total calamity to a beautiful view, depending on the scale you’re using to define ...

If astronomers could catch bursts of gamma rays from supernova explosions that create neutron stars near the Milky Way, the mystery of dark matter could be wrapped up in 10 seconds.

The core collapse of a supernova produces a mass of neutrinos. The Extraluminal service detects these neutrinos by linking together a half-dozen neutrino observatories around the globe.
