This also means that the name 'pulsar' may actually be misleading as these neutron stars don't actually pulse by periodically shrinking and swelling in size, as astronomers once thought. Their pulsing is merely a factor of their orientation in relation to our view of them, their light output ...
The rotational speed of a millisecond pulsar can reach around 50,000 RPM. The rotational speed of a turbocharger can reach up to 290,000 rpm (4.8 kHz), at the same time as 80,000–200,000 rpm (1–3 kHz) is general.Advertisement Advertisement Learn...

This is true, but particles aren't being accelerated to the speed of light as they enter a black hole, just to some high (possibly relativistic) velocity. Some of the energy from that acceleration is dissipated in heat, and in the jet; the rest is incorporated into the black-hole, whi...
A fast radio burst is a bright and brief burst of electromagnetic radiation (light) seen in radio-wave frequencies. They usually last thousandths of a second. Some FRBs repeat, but the vast majority happen once and disappear forever.
Although naturally the field is maturing, interestingly many fundamental questions about the underlying nature and physics of GRBs still remain unsolved. In fact, there are many open problems whose answers were unknown, or at least there was not a consensus on, 10 years ago, and still are toda...
Now your arrow is off the string 3 milliseconds sooner. Is faster more forgiving? These sensors offer a dynamic portrait of brain activity over time, down to the millisecond, but do not tell the precise location of the signals. How information flows in human brains The fastest of these so-...
