Stars are the fundamental building blocks of our universe. Most stars host planets, like our Sun hosts our solar system, and if you look more broadly, groups of stars make up huge structures such as ...

Researchers out of the University of Innsbruck have fabricated a quantum computer that leverages a complex quantum digit system as opposed to the traditional qubits. For those who may not know how a ...

The Bernoulli shift map is a well-known chaotic map in chaos theory. For a binary system, however, the output is not chaotic and converges to zero instead. One way to prevent this is by perturbing the ...

While quantum phenomena can be demonstrated using experiments such as the Double-Slit Experiment, certifying that a multi-qubit system is truly tapping into quantum mechanics is a challenge. It also ...

The discovery could lead to the finding of more planets. Astrophysicists are marveling at the latest celestial discovery made near the Milky Way's supermassive black hole. Scientists have uncovered ...

A binary star system, designated D9, has been discovered orbiting the Milky Way's supermassive black hole (SMBH), providing the first compelling evidence that previously enigmatic G objects are ...

This X-ray binary system is like a scale model of some of the most luminous quasars in the universe. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it ...

This unusual system 'shouldn't exist,' says one astronomer, who notes the orbit is as long as his daily commute. By Briley Lewis Published Aug 8, 2023 6:00 AM EDT Get ...

Only 16 to 84 other examples of this exotic system may exist in our entire galaxy. Astronomers may have discovered a rare type of binary star system, where one star used to orbit inside its partner.

The SOAR Telescope, located on Cerro Pachón in Chile, has received a major upgrade with the installation of the SOAR Telescope Echelle Spectrograph (STELES). The long-awaited instrument achieved first ...
