A massive collision between white dwarf and neutron stars may explain the creation of transient supernovae, explosions that tend to occur far away from host galaxies.
Magnetars are stars that are incredibly dense, rapidly spinning, amazingly hot and the most magnetic objects known in the universe.
Why some “middle age” neutron stars have relatively strong magnetic fields has puzzled scientists, but new computer simulations offer a clue.
