Certain types of supernovae, or exploding stars, are more diverse than previously thought, a University of Arizona-led team of astronomers has discovered. The results, reported in two papers published in the Astrophysical Journal, have implications for big cosmological questions, such as how fast the universe has been expanding since the Big Bang.| AZoQuantum
Astronomers have discovered an extremely cool object that could have a particularly diverse history—although it is now as cool as a planet, it may have spent much of its youth as hot as a star.| AZoQuantum
A study, conducted by the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory and published in npj Computational Materials, reveals a mineral defect that might be valuable for quantum applications.| AZoQuantum
