PSR J0311+1402 flashes every 41 seconds — quite slow for a pulsar. It could help bridge the gap between fast- and ...

With the most powerful radio telescope in the southern hemisphere, we have observed a twinkling star and discovered an ...

Scientists using South Africa’s MeerKAT telescope have peered into the interstellar medium like never before, uncovering ...

The discoveries, published today in Nature Astronomy, challenge existing theories of our local interstellar medium and will lead to new models for pulsar bow shocks. The study, led by Dr Daniel ...

The results are published today in the journal Astronomy and Astrophysics ... leading to the development of a uniquely sensitive dataset. This announcement has also been coordinated with similar ...

The scintillation arcs also gave us the velocities of the plasma layers. Far from being as expected, we discovered that one ...

The study, published in Nature Astronomy, also describes the first measurements of plasma layers within an interstellar shock wave that surrounds a pulsar. We now realize our local interstellar ...
