A kilonova is a very rare astronomical event that occurs when one or more neutron stars and a black hole merge into each other.
Kilonova is also known as ‘macronova’ or ‘r-process supernova’. They emit short gamma-ray bursts and strong electromagnetic radiation due to the radioactive decay.
kilonovae are typically much more brighter than a classical nova but less brighter than a supernova, because a supernova puts out much of its energy in the form of light, while a kilonova puts out much of its energy in the form of gravitational waves.
Kilonovae are special because in the remnants of a kilonova blast, vast quantities of heavy elements, like gold, platinum, lead, uranium and silver had been produced.
