Magnetar star, artwork C016 / 8872
Magnetar star. Computer artwork showing the magnetic field (lines) around a magnetar. Magnetar stars are a type of neutron star with an incredibly strong magnetic field (a million billion times stronger that Earth s). They are formed when certain stars undergo supernova explosions. The decay of the magnetic field causes the emission of high-energy electromagnetic radiation, including X-rays and gamma rays

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Magnetar star, artwork C016 / 8872" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the enigmatic world of magnetar stars. Created by Russell Kightley for Science Photo Library, this computer-generated illustration showcases the intricate magnetic field surrounding a magnetar. Magnetars are an extraordinary type of neutron star boasting an immensely powerful magnetic field, surpassing Earth's strength by a staggering million billion times. These celestial objects form through cataclysmic supernova explosions in certain stars. As their magnetic fields decay over time, they emit high-energy electromagnetic radiation such as X-rays and gamma rays. The artwork beautifully depicts the complex network of magnetic field lines enveloping the magnetar, resembling an ethereal dance frozen in time. The vibrant colors and dynamic composition evoke a sense of awe and wonder at the mysteries that lie within our vast universe. With its swirling patterns and celestial hues, this illustration serves as both a visual feast for astronomy enthusiasts and a valuable tool for astrophysicists studying these fascinating cosmic phenomena. It invites us to contemplate the immense forces at play in space while reminding us of humanity's ongoing quest to unravel the secrets hidden among the stars.
