NASA Telescopes Reveal Hidden Properties of X-Ray Pulsar RX J0032.9-7348
A joint study using NASA’s NuSTAR and NICER telescopes has shed new light on RX J0032.9-7348, an X-ray pulsar in the Small Magellanic Cloud first identified 30 years ago. The pulsar exhibited a 7.02-second pulse period and underwent a significant X-ray brightening event in October 2024. Researchers noted a double-peaked pulse profile and measured...

FAST Telescope Detects New Pulsar PSR J1922+37 in Open Cluster NGC 6791
Astronomers, using China's FAST telescope, have detected a new pulsar, PSR J1922+37, in the direction of the open cluster NGC 6791. This 1.92-second spin pulsar may become the first-ever identified within an open cluster, offering exciting opportunities for understanding stellar dynamics. Its position and dispersion measures closely align with the ...

New Research Explains Zebra Pattern in Radio Waves from Crab Nebula
A new model by Mikhail Medvedev from the University of Kansas offers an explanation for the zebra-like pattern in high-frequency radio waves emitted by the Crab Pulsar. The pattern, first discovered in 2007, is likely caused by diffraction and interference of waves in the pulsar's plasma-rich environment. Medvedev’s model could also provide a met...

Bajaj Pulsar N125 First Ride Review: Third Time's A Charm?
Will the third launch from Bajaj in its 125 cc Pulsar range be a charm? Yes, there are now 3 125 cc Pulsars in the offing! We rode the newest Pulsar N125 briefly and here's how our first impression of the motorcycle shaped up to be.

ISRO and IIT Guwahati Discover New Challenges in Theories of X-Ray Pulsar
Researchers from IIT Guwahati and the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) have made a surprising discovery that could reshape our understanding of X-ray pulsars. They found that the X-rays emitted by Swift J0243.6+6124, the first known Galactic Ultraluminous X-ray Pulsar, exhibit an unexpectedly low level of polarization. This pulsar, which i...

Teenage Pulsar Reveals Itself to Astronomers, Possibly the Strongest Ever to Be Identified
Astronomers have made an exciting new discovery, identifying a newborn pulsar that may possibly be only 14 years old. Scientists were finally able to observe the pulsar after the dense debris and bright energy emissions from the supernova explosion that created the pulsar finally thinned enough.

Rare X-Ray Emitting Cosmic Object Found in Milky Way Galaxy
In the latest and fascinating find, astronomers have detected a rare kind of cosmic object in the Milky Way galaxy. The object named MAXI J1816-195 is found to be emanating X-ray light that was first detected on June 7. The discovery was brought to light by astrophysicist Hitoshi Negoro of Nihon University, Japan, and his team.
