The newly developed model suggests that researchers can directly measure the vibrations inside neutron stars from the gravitational wave signal alone.<\/p>\n
This new research could allow asteroseismologists <\/a>to develop promising new tools to probe the elusive nature of extremely dense nuclear matter.<\/p>\n Neutron stars are the ultradense remnants of collapsed massive stars<\/a>. Despite these stars being positioned high on the electromagnetic spectrum, researchers still know very little about their nature.<\/p>\n By utilising the gravitational wave signal to measure the oscillations of the neutron stars<\/a>, researchers will be able to discover new insights into the interior of these stars.<\/p>\nThe composition of neutron stars<\/h3>\n
