  • 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.

  • Astronomer opdager gådefuld kosmisk eksplosion

    Gammaglimt er de kraftigste eksplosioner i Universet — resultatet af enten stjerner som kollapser, eller af kompakte stjernerester som støder sammen. Men en nylig opdagelse passer ikke ind i nogen af disse kategorier, og udfordrer dermed vores forståelse af deres oprindelse. Astronomer ved Niels Bohr Institutet har spillet en vigtig rolle i studiet, som kan få os til at revidere vores teorier om disse voldsommer fænomener.

  • Astronomers discover enigmatic cosmic explosion

    Gamma-ray bursts are the most powerful explosions in the Universe, resulting from either collapsing stars or from the collision of two compact stellar remnants. But a recent discovery fits in neither, or both, of these categories, challenging our understanding of their source. Astronomers from the Niels Bohr Institute played an important role in the study that may lead us to revise our theories about these violent events.
