Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers have discovered a peculiar cataclysmic variable star. The newly found system, designated SDSS J134441.83+204408.3 (or J1344 for short) is a highly asynchronous, ...
Using the Gemini North telescope, astronomers have performed spectroscopic observations of a binary system known as SDSS J222551.65+001637.7AB. Results of the observational campaign indicate that the system consists of a ...
Polish astronomers have performed photometric observations of a short-period variable star known as NSVS 2983201. They have found that the object is a contact binary system with a mass ratio of about 0.36. The finding was ...
Using the AstroSat spacecraft, Indian astronomers have investigated a high mass X-ray binary system known as LMC X–4. Results of the study, presented December 2 on arXiv.org, yield crucial insights into the properties of ...
Indian astronomers have performed long-term radio observations of a "black widow" millisecond pulsar known as PSR J1544+4937. Results of the observational campaign, published November 25 on the arXiv pre-print server, shed ...
Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers have detected a new low-mass, pre-main-sequence binary system. The newfound binary, designated 2M1222−57, contains two stars the size of the sun but ...
Using NASA's Swift telescope and the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) instrument onboard the International Space Station, Indian astronomers have inspected timing and spectral properties of an X-ray transient ...
Indian astronomers have employed NASA's NuSTAR spacecraft to inspect an X-ray pulsar known as 1E 1145.1-6141. Results of the observations deliver important insights into the properties and nature of this pulsar. The study ...
NASA on Tuesday celebrated exceeding expectations during a mission to deflect a distant asteroid, in a sci-fi like test of humanity's ability to stop an incoming cosmic object from devastating life on Earth.
