Shaken, Not Stirred: NASA’s StarBurst Aces Extreme Temperature Tests
🎉 A new paper with Einstein@Home gamma-ray pulsar discoveries 🔭
The new publication “Einstein@Home Searches for Gamma-ray Pulsars in the Inner Galaxy” was accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal and is posted on the arXiv preprint server today.
📄 https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.21307
The international science team reports the discovery of four previously unknown gamma-ray pulsars towards the direction of the Galactic Center. Most likely the four discoveries are foreground sources from the Galactic disk.
🙏 We thank our volunteers, without the support of whom this research could not have happened.

The “Eye of Sauron” spotted in deep space
👁️ Okay, so the plasma jet in the blazar PKS 1424+240 isn't on a tower in Mordor, and it's not the fire-rimmed eye of a powerful tyrant. But if you don't think of Sauron's eye when you see the image released today, throw the first ring.
📡 Behind this deep image of the jet at unparalleled resolution are 15 years of ultra-precise radio observations with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) and an international research team.
