  Astrophysicists unveil the unexpected symmetry of cosmic explosions

  Although the magnificent explosion of colliding neutron stars is visible across most of the Universe, the resulting fireball is much too small to study in detail. But now astronomers from the Cosmic Dawn Center has found a way to measure the shape of the explosion. The surprising result provides new insight into fundamental physics relating to the formation of heavy elements and the birth a black holes. The study has just been published in the scientific journal Nature.

  Astrofysikere afslører kosmisk eksplosions overraskende symmetri

  Selvom den spektakulære eksplosion af kolliderende neutronstjerner er synlig på tværs af det mest af Universet, er den resulterende ildkugle alt for lille til at kunne se nogen detaljer. Men nu har astronomer fra Niels Bohr Institutet fundet en måde at måle eksplosionens struktur på. Det overraskende resultat giver ny indsigt i den fundamentale fysik, som beskriver dannelsen af tunge grundstoffer og fødslen af et sort hul. Studiet er netop blevet offentliggjort i tidsskriftet Nature.
