Cosmic radio pulses repeating every few minutes or hours, known as long-period transients, have puzzled astronomers since ...

So if we’re right, each former human is now essentially a radio transmitter and receiver. One plurb sends out a signal that is detected by others, who pass it on to others, and so on. It sounds like ...

New observations of a far-flung galaxy cluster have left a group of scientists stumped as they ponder whether they’ve discovered a new form of physics. In their new paper, researchers Tessa Vernstrom ...

Far beneath the Antarctic ice sheet, scientists are mapping a landscape that looks less like a frozen desert and more like an ...

A repeating fast radio burst has just given up one of its biggest secrets. Long-term observations revealed a rare signal ...

LEWISBURG – There is a far-off planet that appears to have a magnetic field similar to Earth’s but it is too hot to support life, a Bucknell University professor says. The brightness of radio waves ...

The universe is awash with strange radio signals, but astronomers have now detected a really bizarre one that repeats every hour, cycling through three different states. While they have some ideas ...

India, Feb. 1 -- An international team of astronomers, including researcherfrom the Department of Physics at The University ...

Triggered by lightning in thunderstorms, whistler waves are radio waves that are channelled thousands of kilometres around the world via ducts in the magnetosphere. As Ian Randall reports, these ...

RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) — A grant from the National Science Foundation has been awarded to a professor at the University of Richmond to fund a project that may improve our understanding of the universe.

An international team of astronomers, including researchers from the Department of Physics at The University of Hong Kong (HKU), has uncovered the first decisive evidence that at least some fast radio ...
