Fast radio bursts, these signals from space, may finally reveal their origin. An international team has identified key clues.

Astronomers have discovered that the magnetar SGR 0501+4516 is speeding through our galaxy at more than 110,000 mph. This ...

Nasa tracks runaway ‘zombie star’ capable of ripping humans apart - Astronomers say the extreme magnetic field of Magnetar ...

The largest radio telescope FAST detects 90% circular polarization and rapidly changing linear polarization in the bursts of a fast radio burst (FRB) repeater, imposing new constraint on radiative ...

A mysterious radio signal from outer space has been traced back to a dead star - 30,000 lights years from Earth. It lasted only a millisecond - but generated more energy than Earth's sun does in a ...

Highly magnetic neutron star is wandering our Milky Way galaxy. Astronomers using NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope have tracked a rare and fast-moving magnetar – called SGR 0501+4516 – as it speeds ...

Just a few milliseconds later, the signal had vanished. Astronomers call these powerful flashes Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). Since 2001, about 30 have been identified. But, new estimates suggest one ...

Researchers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered the magnetar called SGR 0501+4516 is traversing our galaxy ...

Solar flares accelerate energetic electrons that escape into interplanetary space, guided by the Parker spiral magnetic field ...

Then there are fast radio bursts (FRBs), strange, milliseconds-long signals also thought to come from neutron stars — perhaps acting with companions of their own. “More speculatively ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope observed a roaming magnetar of a different origin, indicating the possibility of understanding ...
