Seagate's Pulsar.2 solid state drive line, the successor to the original pulsar collection, has been formally introduced, but the first tests haven't been carried out yet.
It is tomorrow, on May 9, 2012, that the storage product maker will put the 12 Gbps SAS interface through its paces, during the SCSI T... |

Seagate may have fallen behind Western Digital on the storage market, especially now that the latter owns Hitachi as well, but the outfit definitely isn't finished yet, and its newest press release proves it.It seems that Seagate decided it was time for one of those major product refreshes, so it released a bun... |

Building on its experience with Blade and other enterprise server types, Seagate worked long and hard to put together a powerful and reliable solid state drive, which would offer unparalelled data reliability and security. The Pulsar single level cell NAND solid state drive does not have storage capabilities any high... |

Magnetars are a specific category of neutron stars that possess an unusually strong magnetic field. There aren’t many such celestial objects observed so far, although they could prove extremely interesting to scientists, since their powerful magnetism could have a strange impact on matter. Unfortunately, the mo... |

A sample load of high-energy electrons collected from above Antarctica may provide hints of the existence of the mysterious dark matter or, as the theory goes, of an enigmatic celestial object, such as a pulsar or a microquasar that lurks in the astronomical vicinity of our planet's pole. After performing a seri... |

The Fermi telescope from NASA has managed to depict from the myriads of celestial bodies the only one that emits its pulses in gamma-ray beams alone. It is about 10.000 years old and it sends its light towards Earth at a rate of 3 times per second or, more precisely, once every 316.86 milliseconds. The amount of ener... |

By making observations on a binary system of pulsars a team of researchers from the McGill University in Montreal measured for the first time the spin precession of a celestial body located outside the solar system. Pulsars are a type of neutron stars with strong magnetic fields, emitting electromagnetic radiation th... |

The Crab Nebula, housing the Crab Pulsar at its center, is a supernova remnant of a stellar explosion that took place somewhere around 1054. It is located in the Taurus constellation about 6,500 light years away and at the time of the explosion it was allegedly visible on the sky in midday for as much as three weeks,... |

Pulsars are a type of rapidly rotating neutron stars with powerful magnetic fields, capable of projecting a beam of electromagnetic radiation that sweeps the surrounding space as they rotate. They are usually found in the company of white dwarf stars, although the latest addition to the long list of pulsars seems to ... |

It's not the first time - and probably not the last either - when your galaxy commits acts of cannibalism against its smaller companions orbiting around it. Researchers from the Research School of Astronomy at the Australian National University reveal that they have discovered debris of a possible encounter betw... |

The Geminga pulsar was created about 340,000 years ago through the supernova explosion of a regular star, inside what is now called the Geminga supernova. It is well known that supernovae can provide with the required energy to accelerate energetic elementary particles into interstellar space, the so-called cosmic ra... |

X-ray images of the Kes75 supernova remnant shows it to house what seems to be a rapidly spinning neutron star, commonly known as a pulsar, which could have been created in the outcome of the supernova explosion. Lying at a distance of about 20,000 light years away from Earth, Kes75's pulsar located close to the... |

We used to think that Quasi Stellar Objects or quasars are the most energetic structures in the Universe, but this doesn't seem to be the case with the Milky Way, and why would our galaxy be more special than the others? The quasar is a special type of black hole, which goes through a 'feeding' process... |

Not only worms can be parasites. But stars, too. A pulsar (dead spinning star) has been discovered swallowing material from its companion star, dwindling it until the latter becomes an object smaller than many common planets."This object is merely the skeleton of a star. The pulsar has eaten away the star's oute... |

It is known that the Earth's molten metal core fuels a magnetic field. Now, a team has generated similar self-sustaining fields even when the flow is highly turbulent. The new approach is a closer simulation of the Earth's dynamo than other experiments as the fluid flows freely in a large tank and is not c... |
