Nuclear theorists have explored mountain ... wave signals. The innermost inner core of the Earth is anisotropic with a shear modulus that depends on direction. If neutron star crust material ...

Neutron stars, the dense remains of massive stars that have exploded in supernovae, are some of the most fascinating objects ...

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory (LIGO) searches for such waves. This research on how to look for neutron star mountains will guide searches for oscillations of space-time ...
