The most massive stars in the original cluster will have already run through their brief but brilliant lives and exploded as supernovae long ago.

Not exact matches

Long gamma - ray bursts, which flash for up to 100 seconds or longer, are believed to occur when massive stars explode as supernovae.

The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO), designed to detect gamma rays from distant astrophysical objects such as neutron stars and supernova remnants, had also begun recording bright, millisecond - long bursts of gamma rays coming not from outer space but from Earth below.

«It could be created by a superluminous supernova or a long gamma ray burst, and then later on, as it evolves and its rotation slows down a bit, it produces these fast radio bursts as well as continuous radio emission powered by that spindown.

The goal is to ultimately clarify whether this conspiracy is the long - searched mechanism that triggers the supernova explosion and thus leaves behind the neutron star as compact remnant.

Scientists have long suspected that a pulsar — a rapidly spinning, superdense neutron star — was born when a giant star ended its life in a cataclysmic supernova explosion observed in late summer of 1181, as suggested by Japanese and Chinese historical records.

Star formation is a longer process than previously thought, and is heavily dependent on outside events, such as supernova explosions, to trigger it, a team of astronomers has concluded.

As part of the Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble (CLASH) program, the Hubble Space Telescope registered the newly described, far - flung galaxy in four visible and infrared wavelength bands, and Spitzer measured it in a fifth longer - wavelength infrared band, placing the discovery on firmer ground.

A long - standing goal of the LIGO project has been the development of multi-messenger astronomy — the near - simultaneous observation of cataclysmic events such as neutron star mergers or supernova explosions in both gravitational waves and light, providing details about the astrophysics of these phenomena that can't be revealed through either alone.

But as a telescope that stares at single patches of space for long periods of time, it can capture a vast trove of other cosmic treasures — especially the kind that change rapidly or pop in and out of view, like supernovae.

«There are also two other classes of extreme events — long duration gamma - ray bursts and superluminous supernovae — that frequently occur in dwarf galaxies, as well.
