Astronomers at the National Science Foundation\u2019s NOIRLab made the first confirmed detection of a star system that will one day form a kilonova,<\/a> an ultra-powerful and gold-producing explosion created by merging neutron stars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Researchers said on Tuesday that they used data from the SMARTS 1.5-meter Telescope at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile to uncover the first example of the phenomenally rare type of binary star system. The findings are published in the journal Nature.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The arrangement, known as CPD-29 2176, is so astonishingly rare that only about 10 such systems are believed to exist in the Milky Way galaxy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

CPD-29 2176, is located about 11,400 light-years from Earth and was first identified by NASA\u2019s Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Upon further observation with the telescope<\/a>, the scientists were able to deduce the orbital characteristics and types of stars that make up this system: a neutron star that was created by an ultra-stripped supernova and a closely orbiting massive star that is in the process of becoming an ultra-stripped supernova itself.<\/p>\n

An ultra-stripped supernova is the end-of-life explosion of a massive star that has had much of its outer atmosphere stripped away by a companion star.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The current neutron star would have to form without ejecting its companion from the system. An ultra-stripped supernova is the best explanation for why these companion stars are in such a tight orbit,” the paper’s lead author, Noel Richardson of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, said in a statement. “To one day create a kilonova, the other star would also need to explode as an ultra-stripped supernova so the two neutron stars could eventually collide<\/a> and merge.”<\/p>\n

It will take at least a million years for the massive star to end its life as a titanic supernova explosion and leave behind a second neutron star. The authors said the stellar remnant and the pre-existing neutron star will need to draw together before merging and noted that the resulting kilonova explosion will produce much more powerful gravitational waves and leave behind a large amount of heavy elements, including silver and gold.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
