How did we get here? That has to be humanity’s most fundamental question that, so far, has no clear answer. The first step in solving this puzzle is to figure out the origin of life’s ingredients, ...

XRISM’s high-precision X-ray data revealed unusually strong signatures of chlorine and potassium inside the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant. These levels are far higher than theoretical models ...

For the first time, scientists have made a clear X-ray detection of chlorine and potassium in the wreckage of a star using data from the Japan-led XRISM (X-ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission) ...

Hidden within Cassiopeia A, the youngest known exploded star in our galaxy, astronomers have found surprisingly high levels of chlorine and potassium. These elements carry an odd number of protons in ...

XRISM observations of Cassiopeia A reveal abundant chlorine and potassium, showing supernovae can forge these life-linked elements and clarifying their cosmic origins. (Nanowerk News) "Why are we here ...

Kyoto, Japan -- "Why are we here?" is humanity's most fundamental and persistent question. Tracing the origins of the elements is a direct attempt to answer this at its deepest level. We know many ...
