With the computing power donated by the Einstein@Home volunteers, the team discovered gamma-ray pulsations from the rapidly rotating neutron star. This gamma-ray pulsar, now known as J2039−5617, ...
X-ray and gamma-ray telescopes. To date, more than 300 pulsars have been identified in globular clusters (GCs) in the Milky Way. However, no pulsar has been found in an open cluster (OC).
Caption This animation shows a region of the sky centered on the pulsar Geminga. The first image shows the total number of gamma rays detected by Fermi's Large Area Telescope at energies from 8 to ...
The newfound pulsar, which is young and energetic ... some of them are also observed via optical, X-ray and gamma-ray telescopes. Pulsars directly associated with known supernova remnants ...
An international research team has now observed a teraelectronvolt gamma-ray flare seven orders of magnitude -- tens of millions of times -- larger than the event horizon, or surface of the black ...
