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 ...

Astronomers have identified a rare type of binary star system containing a rapidly spinning millisecond pulsar and a helium star companion, formed via common envelope evolution. Although such systems ...

Astronomers have observed primordial material that may be giving birth to three planetary systems around a binary star in unprecedented detail. Astronomers have observed primordial material that may ...

How many Earth-sized exoplanets orbit binary star systems (two-star systems)? This is what a recent study accepted by Astronomy & Astrophysics hopes to address as an international team of researchers ...

Astronomers have detected rare radio waves from a binary star system, challenging previous ideas about their origins. These ...
