How many Earth-sized exoplanets orbit binary star systems (two-star systems)? This is what a recent study accepted by Astronomy & Astrophysics hopes to address as an international team of researchers ...
Astronomers recently released a new image of the binary star system Eta Carinae's full spectrum, taken from deep in Chile's Atacama Desert. The image was captured with the newly installed SOAR ...
Scientists have identified three Earth-sized planets orbiting two stars in the TOI-2267 system. Remarkably, planets transit around both stars — a first in astronomy. The system’s compact, cold nature ...

Massive supernova explosion may have created a binary black hole
"Our study provides a new direction to understand the whole evolutionary history of massive stars toward the formation of ...
The Hubble Space Telescope has captured imagery of the R Aquarii binary star system from 2014-2023. The images have been time-lapsed here to show the evolution of the region. Credit: NASA, ESA, M.
Apples-to-apples comparisons in the distant universe are hard to come by. Whether the subject is dwarf galaxies, supermassive black holes, or “hot Jupiters,” astronomers can spend months or years ...
The Kuiper Belt object Altjira was thought to be a binary, but closer analysis suggests that it is highly likely to be a triple system This raises the question of the three-body problem; if Altjira ...
New Hubble observations explain how blue straggler stars form, showing that binary systems in low-density clusters play a key role ...
