A new study argues that the longest-lived long-period transient GPM J1839-10 is a white-dwarf–M-dwarf binary whose rotating magnetic field drives radio beams, potentially linking long-period transients to white-dwarf pulsars and explaining the puzzling, repeating radio pulses.
Astronomers have discovered a unique space object, ASKAP J1832-0911, emitting regular signals every 44 minutes from 16,000 light-years away, challenging existing models of stellar physics and potentially indicating new types of cosmic phenomena.
Astronomers have discovered a new cosmic object, ASKAP J1832-0911, that emits pulses of radio waves and X-rays every 44 minutes, marking the first detection of such long-period transients in X-rays, which could reveal new insights into stellar phenomena or physics.
