Black holes and neutron stars are among the densest known objects in the universe. Within and around these environments exist plasmas, the fourth state of matter alongside solids, liquids, and gases. Specifically, these plasmas are known as relativistic electron-positron pair plasmas because they consist of electrons and positrons moving at nearly the speed of light.

Warp drives could generate gravitational waves
Monday, 17 June 2024 17:18
Will future humans use warp drives to explore the cosmos? We're in no position to eliminate the possibility. But if our distant descendants ever do, it won't involve dilithium crystals, and Scottish accents will have evaporated into history by then.
Warp drives have their roots in one of the most popular science fiction franchises ever, but they do have a scientific basis. A new paper examines the science behind them and asks if a warp drive containment failure would emit detectable gravitational waves.
The paper is titled "What no one has seen before: gravitational waveforms from warp drive collapse," and it is posted to the arXiv preprint server. The authors are Katy Clough, Tim Dietrich, and Sebastian Khan, physicists from institutions in the U.K.
