Receive emails about upcoming NOVA programs and related content, as well as featured reporting about current events through a science lens. How can we understand the world in which we find ourselves?
A study of the X-rays emitted in the aftermath of a recent nova explosion is set to improve astronomers’ sketchy understanding of these violent but frequent events. Margarita Hernanz and Glòria Sala ...
The beam is off, but high energy physics research is very much on at one of the world’s premier particle physics labs. The requirements of social distancing have prompted scientists at the U.S.
I'm having a debate with this guy at work about the end of the Solar System as we know it.<P>Most scientists believe the sun will run out of fuel in about 5 billion years, at which time, it will (I ...
A Nova aka a New Star is a sudden outburst on the surface of a white dwarf (remnant of a dead star) when it pulls enough material from its companion in a binary system. The companion is usually a star ...
A recent study published in Nature combines data from two major experiments - NOvA in the United States and T2K in Japan - to observe with unprecedented precision how neutrinos, particles capable ...
