Dubbed Teleios, the unusually symmetrical space object is puzzling astronomers with its near-perfect shape and mysterious ...

An international team of scientists has discovered an almost perfectly spherical object in the Milky Way, named Teleios, ...

Atoms naturally have the highest degree of geometrical symmetry, corresponding to the spherical symmetry. An interesting property often arising from symmetry is a high degree of degeneracy--a ...

The result has been published in the journal Nature ("Spherical symmetry in the kilonova AT2017gfo/GW170817"). Illustration of a spherical explosion. (Image: A. Sneppen) Kilonovae are giant explosions ...
