The most likely explanation, according to the scientists who discovered it, is that it’s coming from a neutron star or a white dwarf. But it’s not a neat solution, since the signal’s weird ...
After more than a decade, the source of these signals has finally been identified, nearby the Big Dipper. A new research paper published in Nature Astronomy points to a red dwarf and white dwarf ...
Researchers are hoping this will shed new light on how we investigate space signals. South African Radio Astronomy Observatory (SARAO) If not a neutron star, signs point to a white dwarf star ...
The team tracked the signal back to a strange binary system containing a dead star or "white dwarf" and a red dwarf stellar companion. The radio pulse repeats every 2 hours and was first detected ...
Astronomers have spotted a red dwarf star in a system that is almost certainly the source of a radio signal that, for a while, repeated once every 125 minutes. Moreover, there’s evidence of a ...
Closer observation showed that the signal came from a red dwarf star, but also revealed some quirks suggesting that the radio signal was actually coming from another object locked in binary orbit ...
Almost a decade after the first fast radio burst (FRB) was discovered, an international team of researchers has pinpointed the origin of one such signal as a dwarf galaxy in the pentagon-shaped ...
