Utilizing the stellar evolution code named Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA), Chinese astronomers have ...
Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery of three Earth-sized planets orbiting within a compact binary star system. This rare configuration, where planets circle two stars simultaneously, ...
Researchers have used stellar evolution simulations to trace the future of ATLAS J1138-5139, an ultra-compact double white ...
A: Yes, planetary systems can exist in binary star systems. As of July 2019, astronomers have found 97 planetary systems containing 143 planets around binary stars. These planets may orbit just one of ...
Astronomers from the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and elsewhere report the discovery of a binary system consisting of two brown dwarfs undergoing stable mass transfer. The detection of ...
M33 X-7 contains a massive black hole orbiting a large star in a surprisingly close orbit. The star is dimmer than expected due to its rapid mass gain and viewing angle. A new model explains the ...
Figure 2: Dual/binary AGN confirmed or discovered with direct imaging. Figure 3: Projected separations of candidate triple AGN. In Extended Data Fig. 1 we show the radio spectra of the various ...
