  1. When neutron stars merge, things get messy

    What happens when the densest objects in the universe collide? A neutron star merger is a cosmic forge that creates heavy elements like gold and platinum, but it also unleashes "messy" gravitational waves and gamma-ray bursts that can sterilize nearby solar systems. We look at the violent physics of a kilonova.

  6. Dubbele kosmische explosie geeft geboorte aan ongekende ‘superkilonova’
    In een bizarre wending bracht een supernova twee neutronensterren voort die samensmolten tot een krachtige kilonova.

  7. Le 17 août 2017 occupe une place spéciale dans la mémoire des astrophysiciens. En cette journée, les caractéristiques d'un événement d'ondes gravitationnelles (GW170817) suggèrent la première détection d'une fusion d'étoiles à neutrons. Un branle-bas de combat digne des meilleurs films d'action allait ensuite animer 70 équipes d'astrophysiciens pendant deux mois!
