New observations show a star that blew up in two separate bursts, confirming a long-suspected cosmic phenomenon called a ...

Astronomers capture first image of a white dwarf exploding twice in space Rare double-detonation seen in supernova remnant ...

Astronomers have taken the first ever image that shows what happens when a star explodes twice in a supernova.

A supernova explosion occurred on July 4, 1054, resulting from the death of a star estimated to be nine to eleven times the ...

"The explosions of white dwarfs play a crucial role in astronomy," stated Priyam Das, a PhD student at the University of New South Wales Canberra and study leader. Das further described the findings ...

The "new stars" are best seen from the Southern Hemisphere, but people have spotted them from the United States by looking ...

Researchers have used machine learning to dramatically speed up the processing time when simulating galaxy evolution coupled with supernova explosion. This approach could help us understand the ...

Less than two weeks later, on June 25, reports began to circulate of a second nova blossoming in the southern night sky, this ...

The shattered star at the center was once a white dwarf, a stellar ember no larger than Earth, yet almost as heavy as the Sun ...

Astronomers have captured a jaw-dropping picture of star that exploded twice. It is the first time researchers have obtained ...

Astronomers studying the remnant SNR 0509-67.5 have finally caught a white dwarf in the act of a rare “double-detonation” ...

In other cases, another member of the system will go on to form a second white dwarf. If gravitational instabilities bring ...
