In the past three years, astronomers have discovered a mysterious new type of radio source. We call these long-period transients.

"We are able to measure the local dark matter density using direct acceleration measurements for the first time." ...

A puzzling new type of radio signal – lasting seconds to minutes – has been linked to a binary star system featuring a white ...

While pursuing her PhD at Cambridge University, Jocelyn Bell's advisor was Antony Hewish, a radio astronomer. Hewish and his graduate students in 1967 completed a radio telescope specially ...

In X-Ray binary systems, a compact object (like a Black Hole, a Neutron Star or a White Dwarf) usually rotates about an optical star. An X-Ray binary with a Neutron Star as the compact object can be ...

However, unlike some other researchers, he focuses on a specific type of binary system: spider pulsars, which are a subclass of binary millisecond pulsars.

In 2015, astrophysicists discovered a system consisting of two compact stars orbiting each other: a pulsar (i.e., a highly magnetized rapidly rotating, light-emitting neutron star) and a so-called ...
