Mysterious radio pulses from the Milky Way ‘are unlike anything we knew before’
Astronomers say they have traced a mysterious pulsing in the Milky Way to a surprising source: a dead star locked in a dance with another star.
Mystery radio signals are coming from a part of space never seen by scientists before
Earth has been at the receiving end of mysterious radio emissions every two hours. After more than a decade, the source of these signals has finally been identified, nearby the Big Dipper. A new research paper published in Nature Astronomy points to a red dwarf and white dwarf star,
White dwarf star system is producing mysterious radio signals
Radio astronomers have discovered an unusual phenomenon in recent years. They detected radio pulses from the Milky Way that last from seconds to minutes. These pulses differ from those produced by known radio-emitting neutron stars or pulsars, which typically last only milliseconds.
White dwarf and red dwarf duo emit radio pulses every two hours
An international team of astronomers led by scientists from the Netherlands has shown that a white dwarf and a red dwarf orbiting each other every two hours are emitting radio pulses. Thanks to observations with several telescopes,
Astronomers Just Traced Mysterious Radio Pulses to an Unusual Star Duo
Astronomers have finally traced mysterious radio pulses in the Milky Way to a unique cosmic duo—a red dwarf and a white dwarf orbiting each other every two hours. This discovery challenges previous assumptions that only neutron stars produce such signals.
White dwarf and red dwarf interaction emits a radio blast every two hours
Northwestern University scientists have detected the first radio pulses that can be traced to a dead-star binary.

A Black Hole Has Been Mysteriously Pulsing for Years. Scientists Might Finally Know Why.
A supermassive black hole with an exceptional 7-minute flash may have a “stellar companion.” Of three possible explanations, one is a white dwarf star caught in the black hole’s gravity.
