A theoretical astrophysicist may have solved a nearly two-decade-old mystery over the origins of an unusual 'zebra' pattern seen in high-frequency radio pulses from the Crab Nebula. A theoretical ...

Scientists have discovered a new, persistent pattern in Earth's inner radiation belt using data from the twin NASA Van Allen Probes spacecraft. Most surprisingly, the pattern is produced by the slow ...

Earth’s inner radiation belt displays a persistent zebra striped pattern generated by our planet's rotation, Nasa’s twin Van Allen Probes spacecraft have found. Scientists had previously believed that ...

With its black and white fur and fluffy mane, the zebra is one of the most distinctive creatures in the animal kingdom. But how exactly did the zebra get its stripes? Scientists from the University of ...
