  Chinese cosmic eye FAST finds more than 740 pulsar neutron stars




Xinhua news agency reported fromslotxo168Beijing, China on Feb. 8 that Chinese researchers announced that FAST (FAST), a single-dish radio telescope, 500 meters in diameter, which has been dubbed as The "Chinese Cosmic Eye" has detected more than 740 pulsars since its launch.


A pulsar is a rapidly rotating neutron star. It originates from the exploding core in the interior of a dying massive star. through a supernova explosion


pulsar observations It is Faz's most important work. which can be used to confirm the existence of gravitational radiation and black holes and help resolve many other grievances in physics

FAST's chief engineer Jiang Peng said FAST's annual observation period has exceeded 5,300 hours since its construction in September 2016, receiving 30-40 terabytes of data every year. day More than 740 pulsars have been discovered so far by FAST's additional pulsar discovery.
